The ACLU of North Carolina opposes these bills because they force doctors to give patients medically inaccurate information that an abortion can be reversed through a hormone injection. If passed, this bill would place further barriers to abortion access and make the process more invasive for those seeking abortion care by requiring ultrasounds or an unnecessary surgical procedure.
