Oregon abortion laws bring
in out-of-state residents
By MARKIAN
HAWRYLUK
The Bulletin
BEND — Oregon is pro-
viding more abortions than
its residents receive, a sign
the state’s abortion laws are
less restrictive than in some
neighboring states.
Oregon residents under-
went 7,847 abortion proce-
dures in 2015, out of a total
of 8,610 abortions performed
within the state — about 11.2
percent of abortions in Ore-
gon were for out-of-state
residents, according to data
released by the federal Cen-
ters for Disease Control and
Prevention last week.
For comparison, in Idaho,
fewer abortions (1,272) were
performed than residents
received (1,695), with just 4.6
percent for out-of-state resi-
dents. Washington had nearly
the same number of total
abortions and abortions for
residents.
“We tend to assume that
because abortion is legal that
everybody has readily avail-
able access to the procedure
when needed,” said Grayson
Dempsey, executive director
for NARAL Pro-Choice Ore-
gon. “The reality is that for
women who are in a state like
Idaho, they are often needing
to cross state lines or get to
urban centers to get the care
they need.”
According to the Gut-
tmacher Institute, which
tracks abortion policy from
state to state, Idaho has a
number of restrictions in
place that make it harder for
women to access abortions.
Those include state-directed
counseling designed to dis-
courage women from having
abortions, a 24-hour waiting
period and, for minors, con-
sent of a parent.
Oregon has none of those
restrictions.
In some cases, women liv-
ing near the Oregon border
may find it closer or more
convenient to drive across
state lines. That occurs in the
Ashland area with women
from northern California. The
CDC did not provide data
from California in the report.
Dempsey said a number
of women fly from Alaska
to Portland or Seattle to seek
abortions.
In other cases, women
may cross into Oregon to get
certain types of abortions not
available where they live.
Women in Vancouver, Wash-
ington, can get abortions
from a local Planned Parent-
hood clinic. They must travel
to a clinic in Portland if they
need a second-trimester abor-
tion, which are not offered at
the Vancouver clinic.
Oregon is one of only a
handful of states that allow
nurse practitioners to per-
form abortions. In 2006, the
Oregon board of nursing
was the first in the country
to rule that aspiration abor-
tion was within the scope
of practice for family nurse
practitioners.

The Department of State
Lands will be in Astoria on
Wednesday to discuss pro-
posed changes to how devel-
opers must mitigate the loss of
wetlands and streams.
“Oregon’s current require-
ments focus on replacing
affected acres — an approach
that studies show has led to a
nationwide loss of the benefits
that wetlands and waters pro-
vide,” a news release from the
state said. “Existing state law
and new national standards
require replacing benefits lost,
not only acres lost. The pro-
posed changes will better align
Oregon’s mitigation approach
with the national standard to
improve outcomes for commu-
nities and the environment.”
The proposed rules would
change how the benefits pro-
vided by wetlands and waters
are replaced when there are
unavoidable impacts of devel-
opment or other activities. The
state developed the pro-
posed rules with the help of
a rulemaking advisory com-
mittee including representa-
tives from the businesses and
organizations most likely to be
