In 2021, the U.S experienced the highest number of abortion restrictions made law by states. The restrictions denied women their reproductive rights and have influenced many challenges, such as a shortage of abortion pills and medication. The Women’s Liberation Movement (WLM) is the most significant feminist movement in the U.S committed to championing women’s freedom, equal opportunities, and rights. Over time the WLM has developed autonomy to support women’s reproductive rights. The restrictions have influenced a patchy, inequitable, or non-existent access to pregnancy termination alternatives that have given rise to the black market of cheap abortion pills not approved by the Foods and Drugs Administration (FDA). More than ever, the WLM is challenged by the trending restrictions on abortion in the U.S that have substantial impacts on women’s control over their bodies, rights, responsibilities, and social status.
