Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee signs law criminalizing the distribution of abortion pills through mail

Tennessee’s Republican Governor Bill Lee signed a bill into law on Thursday that increases criminal penalties for anyone found to be distributing chemical abortive pills through either telehealth programs or the mail.
