Re: Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade -

Here's an article that outlines what it could mean: https://www.npr.org/2022/05/03/10960...t-happens-next
So, yes it would ban abortion either entirely or within 6-8 weeks (before you even know you're pregnant) in a lot of states
Not only do people without uteruses not have the right to tell a woman what to do with hers, but the ramifications of this could be so horrific. Illegal and unsafe abortions are just the beginning. What about women whose lives are threatened by pregnancy? Or, someone who was the victim of sexual assault and now is forced to carry that child to term? Or a baby with such severe disabilities or birth defects that they may not survive, have poor quality of life, or the costs of all kinds for their care will be too much on their parents? Pro life tends to mean pro-birth. The same people who force babies to be born also harshly criticize the social programs such children and families would rely on to get by and don't see the problem with that.
