You know what? Too many women are not given emergency contraception – or even information about it – in emergency rooms. Only 14 states have laws that ensure sexual-assault survivors' access to the "morning-after" pill (also called emergency contraception or Plan B®). Give it up for AR, CA, CO, CT, IL, MA, MN, NJ, NM, NY, OR, SC, WA, WI.
I know, it's soooo not okay. But in most states, there's no requirement to offer sexual assault survivors the "morning-after" pill in hospital emergency rooms. Only 14 states say it's necessary: AR, CA, CO, CT, IL, MA, MN, NJ, NM, NY, OR, SC, WA, WI.
