Morning-after thanks
Thank you to Katrina Hopkins for her bravery and honesty in telling her story of using the morning-after pill (Front Porch, March 8). South Dakota is currently trying to set a precedent for returning legal control of women's reproductive rights to the states. So it may be that in the near future, North Carolina will need people like Katrina and her boyfriend and others of her generation, who care about women's access to abortion (and the morning-after pill), to join the fight to keep that access legal and available here in our state.
