The Supreme Court's overturning of the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling in June had a ripple effect on various Republican-led states, including Texas.

Governor Greg Abbott's crackdown on abortion has led to Texas residents seeking alternative abortion healthcare through a Mexican volunteer network.

The Necesito Abortar Mexico network, led by Sandra Cardona Alanis, has helped a lot of women in the United States, including those living in Texas, where abortion has been banned.

Necesito Abortar Mexico Provides Abortion Healthcare to Mexican Women

In an interview with KVUE Texas, Necesito Abortar Mexico founder Sandra Cardona Alanis detailed how she founded and helped women in the state with the necessary health care they need in seeking an abortion.

Alanis founded the volunteer group six years ago to provide care to only Mexican women through abortion medication online or over the phone. For the founder, helping women seek abortion stems from personal experience.

"My abortion was due to rape, because of a beating that my ex-partner gave me. So, I don't want any woman, for whatever reason, to be unable to have an abortion," Cardona Alanis noted.

Initially, the network's service was only limited to women in Mexico, but their network trajectory changed when Roe v. Wade ruling was overturned in the United States.

Necesito Abortar Mexico Is Now Catering Texas Women Seeking Abortion

Sandra Cardona Alanis revealed that when the monumental abortion ruling was overturned, they received an overwhelming influx of messages and calls from the United States.

"That day the ruling was given, we received more than 70 messages. The women panicked; they were afraid. Seventy messages on Facebook. There was no shortage from those on Instagram, those on Twitter, those who spoke on the phone," she noted.

To cater to the growing number of people seeking their service, Necesito Abortar Mexico has already recruited English-speaking members to bridge the gap. Alanis told the outlet that most of the women calling were "very scared, very desperate" Texas women.

Necesito Abortar Mexico is sending the medication through mail to Texas, while those who come to them personally receive it. Cardona Alanis said others sent a representative or family member to pick up the medication.

She noted that all medications that Necesito Abortar were authorized and cleared by the World Health Organization for safe usage at home. The FDA has also cleared the use of mifepristone and misoprostol, the medications they use to terminate up to ten weeks of pregnancy.

Although mailing abortion pills are illegal in Texas, Cardona Alanis noted that there are other laws protecting their work. Meanwhile, Democratic-led cities in Texas are pushing back the nearly total ban on abortion across the state.
