The law changing, and by then the law enforcers have a family member's web searches for reproductive care and throw someone in jail for murder.

Yet. Freedom takes work, and vigilance against its incremental loss.

“Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.” -- early 1800s saying (https://www.monticello.org/research-education/thomas-jeffers...)

“Freedom is a fragile thing and it's never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by way of inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people.” -- Reagan, 1967 (https://www.reaganlibrary.gov/archives/speech/january-5-1967...)
