State after state is passing sweeping abortion restrictions this year, from Alabama's near total abortion ban, to Ohio's ban after a fetal heartbeat is detected, to Utah's ban after a pregnancy reaches 18 weeks. Already, eight states have passed laws that could challenge federal protections for abortion, with more on the way, prompting jubilation on the right and terror on the left.
Perhaps more than any co-ordinated strategy, activists across the country are tapping into the same energy and feeding on one another's momentum. Anti-abortion protesters rally near a Planned Parenthood clinic in Philadelphia after a Democratic state lawmaker berated an anti-abortion demonstrator outside the clinic.Activists are more likely to co-ordinate through their Catholic and evangelical churches than on mailing lists of mass political email chains. In some states, the local Right to Life chapter may be the strongest activist hub.
This included even the so-called fetal heartbeat bills, which outlaw abortion as early as six weeks into a pregnancy, when an ultrasound may be able to detect the pulsing of what will become the fetus' heart. Even in cases of rape and incest the fetus must always be the primary concern, he said, but not if the mother's life is in danger.
"I'll reach out and ask, 'What were your strong points, what were the pitfalls?' Things like that," she said. "I've got one in the works right now."
It’s wonderful.
What matters here is that 76% people believe it’s a woman’s choice! But only 50% of people in the USA vote. Nearly all the evangelicals and Christians around 27% vote & they are one issue voters. We don’t have this kind of extreme view taking power in Australia as everyone votes
Its horrific
It’s called the pro life movement

Alabama law drives abortion to the centre of 2020 campaignThe White House didn't comment on the Alabama bill, signed into law by Republican Governor Kay Ivey as US President Donald Trump eyes his election campaign for 2020. ...because contraception is too hard to do properly and abortion is?; the majority of abortions do not stem from rape but from unprotected sex - focus on the education and the prevention rather than dealing with preventable consequences... their saviour was born of unwed mother... May be theyre waiting for the second coming denying unwed mothers right to abortion.

Missouri the latest US state to restrict abortionThe Missouri House passed a bill on Friday banning abortions once a fetal heartbeat is detected, making it the latest US state to pass restrictions on ending a pregnancy. Effectively banning abortion full stop with no exemptions whatsoever. well that's a good thing, i think 12 weeks should be a cut off point. So it is okay to conduct terminations when there is no detectable heart activity? People like dutton, morrison, frydenberg, sukkar , abetz and Andrews are candidates auspol
