Despite the fact that the FDA has only approved the abortion pill up to 10 weeks of pregnancy, Planned Parenthood offers it to women up to 11 weeks of pregnancy. This increases a woman’s risk of complications including incomplete abortion, infection, and hemorrhage, and the Bennington facility states on its website that it will only follow up with the patient “within 1-2 weeks” and only “if you’d like.”

Unfortunately, the effects of the second pill of the abortion pill regimen can almost immediately cause horrific pain and excessive bleeding for women, often sending them to the emergency room long before their scheduled follow-up with Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood does admit that the abortion may not be completed and that women may need a surgical abortion.

Nicole Clegg, a spokesperson for PPNNE, told WCAX that the closures are to protect the abortion giant’s sustainability following staffing shortages. Kai Williams, senior vice president of PPNNE, explained to VT Digger, “Because of limited resources and the national crisis for reproductive health access, we’re reallocating our resources.”

PPNNE spokesperson Eileen Sullivan told VT Digger that the abortion corporation is facing challenges that are “complex and often linked to one another, including difficulty recruiting and retaining staff, low patient volume, facility needs, and financial sustainability.”

The decision to close multiple Vermont locations comes in the same year that the state is preparing for a vote on whether or not to make abortion a right in the state Constitution. Proposition 5 will add an amendment to the Vermont Constitution if voters approve it. The Vermont Senate and House already approved the measure in 2019. A second approval from both the Senate and House was required and the Senate approved Prop 5 for the second time in April 2021 with the House approving it for the second time in February.

Vermont requires free condoms to be available for middle school children, and the state does not have a single restriction on abortion. Seventy percent of Vermont voters say abortion should be legal in all or most cases. In November, they will vote on whether or not abortion should be a Constitutional right.
