We have heard of women who, after they have gotten the information, have changed their minds about getting an abortion. But pro-choice groups say it's another stumbling block for women trying to exercise a legal right. I think it's incredible that first they go preaching that women are not getting information, and now they want to control how they get that information. The only impact is inconvenience. It could apply to euthanasia if that were to become legal here.
Abortion remains one of society's most divisive issues.
I don't believe in that. Abortion backers argue the procedure is rare and performed only when a mother's health or life are threatened. Michigan's earlier attempt to ban the procedure was ruled unconstitutional in 1996. The U.S. Supreme Court is now weighing arguments over a similar law in Nebraska. These are statements in public policy about how we value human life.
