I think one thing that gets overlooked is that the US actually has some of the most liberal abortion laws in the world.

Pretty much the USA and China are top of the list.

Europeon laws on average are FAR more restrictive, and the cut off date to get an abortion is far sooner.

A LOT of Western Europeon countries put the ban on abortions at 12 weeks.

 

Let alone the various hoops you have to do to get an abortion.   Needing specific reasons or they won't give it to you, talking to a psychologist, proving your poor etc.

Abortion activism is a lot like gun activism in the US.  Quite different due to american's greater value in individuality.

The key, again, isn't about the time restriction as it is about the shuttering of clinics, which are otherwise the prime source of women-focused healthcare for a lot of women across Texas.


You are for Obama Care right? the massive legislation that forces people and companies to support the health care system? Why aren't you for forcing clinics that already cut people open, to also help with the care of others in surgical need? If you are for one, shouldn't be for the other? I am confused by your stance here? Seems like it should be something you would support, making companies change what they do to help others that need the help. http://www.ascassociation.org/ASCA/AboutUs/WhatisanASC

requiring doctors to up to snuff and be allowed to perform within a hospital with in 30 miles also seems reasonable. Wouldn't there to be an accident at some clinic and not be able to get to a hospital in time, or have a docotr doing surgery that isn't capable.

 

the limiting the abortion pill/drug would be the only conern of mine in the law.
