A new Planned Parenthood clinic opened Monday in southeast Kansas, providing an access point for reproductive care in nearby states with abortion bans, like Oklahoma. Emily Wales, the president and CEO of Planned Parenthood Great Plains, said the clinic in Pittsburg, Kansas, was a response to the care needs of states impacted by the fall of Roe v. Wade. She said the nonprofit got to work after an August 2022 vote in Kansas rejecting a proposed constitutional amendment that would have said there is no right to an abortion in that state.
