In a press release issued this week, The Satanic Temple ("TST") announced that it has set up its first Reproductive Health Clinic in New Mexico. TST has developed an abortion ritual that it claims is protected by the First Amendment. According to the press release:
[A]nyone in New Mexico seeking to perform The Satanic Temple’s abortion ritual will be able to receive free online medical services. Patients undergo a confidential screening and virtual appointment before having their prescriptions sent to the clinic’s pharmacy partner, who will mail the medications in a discreet package. The pharmacy’s fees will fall around $90 USD in order to keep prices at a minimum. TST Health’s licensed medical staff will be available for patient questions and concerns and will initiate follow-up communications with patients. In addition, the clinic has a dedicated patient hotline that is on call 24/7.
The Satanic Temple hopes to expand operations into other states, including those that do not allow clinicians to perform abortions.
TST's press release added that it has named the facility "The Samuel Alito’s Mom's Satanic Abortion Clinic," and went on to elaborate on that choice. Christian Post reports on TST's actions.
