A box of cupcakes and a thank-you note for the clinic staff sit on the break room table at Alamo Women’s Clinic in Albuquerque, New Mexico, U.S., January 11, 2023. On June 24, 2022, a year ago this week, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and stripped away a nationwide right to abortion. Dozens of clinics closed, forcing patients to travel thousands of miles to end pregnancies. These included clinics of Alan Braid and his daughter Andrea Gallegos in San Antonio, Texas, and Tulsa, Oklahoma. Braid, an abortion provider since 1972, and Gallegos, manager of their clinics, decided to uproot their families in Texas to open the clinics in New Mexico and Illinois, two states where abortion remains legal.
