The day Alan Braid opened his abortion clinic for business in Albuquerque, New Mexico, last August, he looked out at a waiting room full of patients fresh off trips from Texas, some with suitcases in tow. Several months later, Dr. Braid’s daughter Andrea Gallegos drew a similar crowd to the opening of their abortion clinic in Carbondale, Illinois.
The father-daughter duo had their lives disrupted when on June 24, 2022, a year ago this week, the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and stripped away a nationwide right to abortion.
