TX abortion ban causes more women to nearly bleed to death during miscarriage

The law is clear. You are just upset it protects the most innocent from being killed for convenience via abortion.

 

And I guess you're happy with the skyrocketing maternal mortality rate in Texas after the law took effect.

 

Of course not. But the law is not the reason. It clearly gives doctors the ability to protect a mother via abortions their life is at risk. And if futuregators’s story is correct…cleaned up a Pete trial issue with the old law that could have hindered doctors.

 

No. You feel the law is perfect. And disregard all evidence it's not, line complaints from 100 Texas OBGYNs, horror stories from dozens of women, who are the lucky ones because at least they are still alive, and a skyrocketing maternal mortality rate. All this must male you feel just peachy.

 

I have never said the law is perfect. But it does clearly give doctors the ability to perform an abortion to protect the mother’s life.

 

If the law isn't perfect, what would you change about it? I know the first thing I'd change. I would change the law so that women like Kate Cox could get a medical abortion when her doctors first wanted to do the procedure. Yes, the law in Texas allows for abortion, but only when, as Cox's doctors put it, the woman is within an inch of her life. And the low forbids any action until a woman reaches this point.

Women like Cox, who had the time and means to travel outside of Texas for a medical abortion did exactly that, and there were no complications. But had she stayed in Texas and been forced to wait per the law, then who knows what might have happened. We do know that women in a similar situation as Cox in Texas do need to wait, by law, for the doctors to be allowed to legally intervene. And as a result, we have dozens of horror stories of women who had serious medical complications. And these are the lucky ones. Many more, like Barnica, didn't survive. And more women in Texas have died from pregnancy complications, percentage wise, than any other state since the law has passed.
