Category: Abortion Laws
Level: State
A policy put in place that affects women/individuals/families
This policy is important because it will effect women and families with new regulations.
My views: My views on abortion are already wishy-washy. I am pro choice to an extent and I feel that if the mother nor the father that the child is coming into does not have the child's best interest at stake should have the choice to decide. I think that getting an abortion is not something every women wants to do and do often, which they shouldn't, but it is already a very hard decision to come to when deciding. Shutting down facilities that offer abortions are not going to stop women from becoming pregnant. It will only increase the number of babies being born that are going to go straight to adoption or be raised in a family that can not support them. Abortion Clinics are support systems for mother's who are expecting and can not tell their families what is going on. If half of those are shutting down and becoming less available there will only be more problems coming from this.
