And abortions would still be legal.
But, if the courts have said that banning abortion is unconstitutional that also means that placing an undue burden on someone seeking the service is also unconstitutional. Forcing someone to go out of state for a legal procedure (since unlicensed doctors cannot legally perform services) has been seen as an undue banning tantamount to banning in judicial precedent.
