Katie Couric Instagram – Allie Phillips (@allie4tn), a young Tennessee woman who runs a daycare from home and has a young daughter, Adalie, was delighted to learn she was pregnant with a second daughter, Miley Rose, in 2022. The same year, Tennessee enacted an abortion ban after the fall of Roe v Wade. Allie had no reason to believe this would affect her – but unfortunately it did.
Miley Rose was deemed “incompatible with life” at around 19 weeks, and Allie was faced with the decision many women must grapple with now that Roe has fallen: to leave the state to receive abortion care, or to continue her pregnancy as her daughter deteriorated, threatening Allie’s life and fertility. She chose the former, and documented the difficult, time-sensitive process to her nearly 300,000 TikTok followers.
Now, Allie is running for a seat in the Tennessee House of Representatives. ➡️🎧You can listen or watch her amazing story at the link in my bio, or anywhere you listen to your podcasts.
