Episode description

It's being called the most important case for reproductive rights in the United States since Roe vs Wade was overturned.

A judgement in a court case in Texas that could ban access to a non-surgical abortion medication is due any day now.

Closer to home, the exact same medication could become more widely available. The Therapeutic Goods Administration is currently considering appeals to widen its accessibility, with a decision expected in the next few weeks.

Today, contributor to The Saturday Paper Esther Linder, on the barriers to early non-surgical abortions in Australia, and whether it's time for a change.
