Summary

The Trump administration launched attacks on abortion rights by dropping a case defending emergency abortions in Idaho and instead seeking to join a Supreme Court case backing South Carolina’s block on Medicaid funds for Planned Parenthood.

Critics argue these actions threaten reproductive rights, despite Trump’s past pledges not to interfere. Idaho hospitals have reported delays in emergency care due to the state’s near-total abortion ban.

Pro-choice advocates warn these moves could further erode abortion access and endanger women’s lives.

Conservative leaders praise Trump’s support for state-level abortion restrictions.

    Crap like this is why women should leave those states in favor of blue states. You are not a person if you are forced to carry, you are a incubator with no rights to be something else.

      They should just get their tubes tied or a vasectomy while they still can, before this shit spreads across the country.

        Leaving aside wanting kids at a different time, most of these places won’t let women get elective tube tying or hysterectomy (vasectomy being for those with a penis) without jumping through a ton of hoops.

          Even in fairly sensible states and for egg freezing, they may want you to jump through hoops.

          As part of the process my significant other apparently had to either tell them I didn’t exist, or they’d want to talk to me for permission to freeze her eggs. Even if we were married, they’re her eggs not mine. It’s completely inappropriate to need to talk to me.

        Well the issue there is if anyone wants kids later. Im not raising my child in a place without freedom to choose when to have a baby. F that. At that point just leave women at home locked up “for their safety”. What a joke of a timeline.
