In this episode of The Chile Wire, guest host Megan Hinojos sits down with New Mexico native Rebecca Weaver, Director of Advocacy and Policy for the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists (AAPLOG), to discuss the medical and scientific case for life and the importance of protecting both patients in pregnancy.\nRebecca explains how AAPLOG equips doctors and medical students to practice life-affirming medicine, why conscience protections matter for pro-life physicians, and the distinction between induced abortion, miscarriage and treatment for ectopic pregnancy. She also breaks down how abortion pills work, the risks of obtaining them online without medical oversight, AAPLOG’s undercover investigation into online abortion pill providers, and the option of abortion pill reversal.\nThe conversation also takes a closer look at New Mexico’s abortion policies, the state’s role in abortion tourism, maternal health, access to prenatal care, and how life-affirming telehealth could help women in rural communities. Rebecca also shares why she remains hopeful about the future of the pro-life movement—and the growing number of medical professionals committed to caring for both women and their babies.\nCheck out AAPLOG's website:\nhttps://aaplog.org/","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/RTLiy8g1FuwMsXdNUGfMBvyGCssB1IrhkJu4jHcOjds/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8xZGU0/MTIwNzIwZWU3MWU3/MDRiNjYyMmI3ODM5/YjNmMC5qcGVn.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
