How abortion bans like the one in Alabama pose yet another hurdle to lower-income Americans:

The law signed in Alabama banning most abortions has been seen by many opponents as an attack on women's bodies. But experts say there is a certain subset of people who are being further impacted: lower income individuals.

Ferrell-Zabala added that Planned Parenthood has heard how women end up having to"divert money" that may be earmarked for rent, groceries or utility bills towards paying for an abortion. Additionally, Ferrell-Zabala said,"If you're struggling to make ends meet, you might not be able to afford to get an abortion until later in your pregnancy."

If bans like the one passed in Alabama this week, which is facing legal challenges already, go into effect, more women would need to travel further when seeking an abortion. Ferrell-Zabala said she also thinks anti-abortion lawmakers are consciously using the cost as well as bans on abortion after a certain week in a pregnancy as a way to make abortion inaccessible for some individuals: Because it takes time to come up with the money, patients may be pushed past the week limit in their states.

Use condoms, don’t matter if u poor or rich.. have sex w common sense...

STOP HAVING SEX AND FOCUS ON WORKING YOUR WAY UP TO FINANCIAL STABILITY

Unborn babies are being killed and yet they consider it an attack on the female body. Only in leftist media land.

What is it that some women don’t understand an abortion at any stage is killing “a living being”? It is unfortunate that bad things happen to some women, but killing a life should not be the solution. The discussion is changing—choose Life.

Abortion is murdering Ann innocemt chile.

They have the option of adoption so that statement does fly

are saying that we don't need poor people having children. Newsflash: Sanger wanted to genocide generations of unborn children of poor people, especially black children. Most abortion clinics are located in black neighborhoods across America.

Arkansas and other ignorant state governments aren't imposing Lebensborn on women YET, but they have imposed laws that mandate the protection of forced and unwanted procreation without exception. An evil law begets more evil laws.

'lower-income' individuals have access to free birth control pills, the 'morning after' pill and condoms. If they & others 'choose' not to use these birth control methods that are readily available are that irresponsible, why should we help them kill their unborn child?

Horse💩,just another excusd for women to have irresposible sex.STOP ABORTION AND CALL ABORTIO WHAT IT REALLY IS,ABORTION IS MURDER!TRUTH2020

'Ban abortions, make contraception unaccessable, outlaw sexual contact' This seems like a experimental scheme to reduce human population, maybe we'll see some futuristic medication in the next decades that will achieve the wanted results. Stalin would be proud. StalinWasRight

Contraception. Seriously, it’s not difficult or expensive.

What is the value of a human life?

Women use condom or pills to not get pregnant

Seriously... are you guys not sick

Low income Americans still have access to Walmart’s over the counter condoms and any pharmacy in the country for a Plan B pill. Enough of the bullshit excuses!!!!

PPact Medicaid stats re statement in article.

Why are people so hell bent on promoting the death of children of low income people?

So you're saying lower income Americans are stupid?

Poor people could not have sex.

Like massive illegal immigration doesn’t undermine the working poor’s wages as well?

Gillibrand accepted thousands in contributions from the Trump crime family!

Fake news ..abortions do not hurt low income Americans ..this is just to get others worked up

But you BETTER BAKE MY CAKE OR YOU'RE GOING TO COURT.

Women & Men do not have to act like rabbits! Sex isn’t everything. It is for married men & women & some restraint is involved. Grow up people! 🙄

Financial hardship doesn't justify killing a child

Because abortion will never stop. The rich will always have a doctor willing to do the job and the poor will have them the old way. We legalize abortion because of how many women die in back alley clinics, suicide and mutations. Please don’t forget where we come from

Let’s think of the babies Please

'F*** a condom, feels better without...oops...cant afford a baby. Guess i'll hafta kill it this time. How will I pay rent now that I gotta kill muh baby? This isn't fair...the gov. gotta help me. This is MY body and MY choice to commit murder! Someone gotta pay for this...' 🙄🤦‍♀️

I work with pregnant teens. They have no interest in birth control. We need to encourage women to take charge of their reproduction. BIRTH CONTROL is available. We act like women of victims of pregnancy. I believe in ABORTIONS UP UNTIL 12 weeks

You keep killing baby's and GOD will hold you all accountable for shedding innocent blood.

Utter garbage message! What use abortion as a form of birth control? Really sick!

Alabama's abortion law has no effect on anyone unless the woman has sex and gets pregnant. There is nothing biblical that allows for abortion, so if you don't want a child then don't have sex, your economic status is irrelevant.

Tell the lower- income Americans to be more responsible. It’s sad that Abortion is used as birth control in states like NY. Unlimited abortions when you’re on welfare.

Evangelicals, follow Christ's example! Faced w/men who wanted to stone an adulteress, He preached to them. He did not seek civil laws to ban stoning. (John 9.) He later said 'My kingdom is not of this world.' (John 18:36) Don't use civil laws to force your beliefs on others!

'Holier Than Thou'married political,religious leaders etc have intimate relationships w strippers,if pregnancy resulted what would they do?

Look these are our bodies it is our choice. We all have a GOD if it is wrong he will be the judge, not you the courts or anyone else we will answer to him and only him (or her).

Murica

Lower income Americans shouldn't be having babies. DUH

We all have rights. now the law needs to respect that

I can only laugh in disbelief when I hear clueless social justice warriors argue that the early explorers and colonists were complicit in genocide against native Americans, never realizing that it's taking place today right in front of their eyes, and they support it? How bizarre

Killing is killing no excuse, go Alabama!!

Let’s get this trending... AWomensHeartbeatMatters

So it's all about economics eh...oops can't afford kids.

Sorry to impose on the right to murder for convenience ... Good Grief

To each their own we all have to live with are decisions!

Not another hurdle.But make note females have to take birth control pills or a needle every 3 months, that’s injecting chemicals in your daughters. Or insert devices which have some serious health effects as well. Men don’t like condoms time to educate them

Stupid hurts. 1. Lbgtv or what’re .... how are they getting pregnant and needing abortions. Seriously draw me a fucking picture. 2. Low income affected? Make condoms and birth control accessible through the ebt

Are you seriously trying to justify killing an innocent child with this ..ABC is well rooted in Hitler'ism..'We reserve the right to pick & choose who is socially acceptable & who must be aborted..We begin at birth,& to the mental,& seniors...the German race must be preserved'

If they are not careful, they will back Rowe v. Wade out of existence. And then what's next? Brown v. Board of Education? Be afraid. Be VERY AFRAID.

This is such a racist and ridiculous article. When the hell to we start talking about taking responsibility of your actions. How about promoting safe sex. Not using abortion as birth control. For goodness sake. So low income people are to stupid to be responsible, so they can a?

Tell the lower-income people to quit having irresponsible sex since they can't afford the kid.. How about looking for a better job instead of hooking up with your Bea 👍

New Alabama law saves the lives of unborn people. Poses a hurdle to murdering your fetus.

The state if Alabama should help in child support!

共和党是在强奸和羞辱全美国的女性! 悲哀的是,很多美国女性支持共和党。

If women would stop behaving like prostitutes, and take some responsibility, they wouldn't be demanding the right to kill their own offspring. JustSayin HONK! HONK!

'Crimson Tide' is going to take on a totally new meaning in Alabama...

Tough I know, how to kill their baby on a budget.🙄

There is a continuous war on the poor that needs to be addressed now,because they also VOTE

Good god this is NEWS to them?

That’s a sick rationale for killing babies, but what do you expect from the depraved fake news media

It's all a question of equal access. That's the only thing that might save women in those backward states.

It affects the higher income doctors who kill for their golf club memberships too.

I fixed your headline: 'How abortion bans like Alabama's dramatically impacts unborn people'.

Yeah....so Democrats can’t exterminate is. 🖕🏿 Democrats!

Alabama abortion ban is a “violation of human rights,” Amnesty International SaysThe legislation will criminalize abortion and allow doctors performing the procedure to face 99 years in jail and be charged with felonies. When murdering babies is a 'human right,' you know the whole concept of human rights just just a bunch of malarkey. Go kill your children in another state. Careful, the baby in the womb is human too. That's why criminals who kill a pregnant mother are sometimes charged with a double homicide of the fetus was viable outside of the womb.
