Just another post about abortion rights

 

All you have to do is read the headline (and what I excerpted):

This Alabama AG won’t stop at the state line to prosecute abortion

Steve Marshall is Exhibit A in why leaving abortion to the states is a nightmare.


And now my excerpt:
"One thing we’ve learned since Dobbs is that women who are determined to obtain abortions will find a way to do so: The number of abortions in 2023, the first full year after the ruling, was 11 percent higher than in 2020, according to the Guttmacher Institute."
In other words, be careful about getting what you ask for, because it might not mean getting what you want. I told some GOP abortion opponents that overturning Roe wasn't the right way to reduce abortions, but did they listen?
