Question

What is the current state of Abortion and HOW and WHY is it impacting Americans Lifes

Answer 1

Current state of Abortion in America

Abortion is legal throughout the United States and its territories, although restrictions and accessibility vary from state to state. Abortion is a controversial and divisive issue in the society, culture and politics of the U.S., and various anti-abortion laws have been in force in each state since at least 1900. The current scenario in America has the following elements :

• It’s already hard for many people to get abortions in the US
• There are nowhere near enough abortion clinics in the US
• Some states have effectively banned all abortions
• But it’s not just outright bans we’re worried about

42 abortion restrictions were enacted between 1 January and 15 May 2019 alone. This includes measures like prohibiting certain common types of procedure and requiring parental consent for teenagers who need abortions.

• These new laws will cause deaths and injuries : Anti-abortion laws do not stop or reduce abortions, but they do make them dangerous.When carried out with the assistance of a trained health-care provider in sanitary conditions, abortions are one of the safest medical procedures available. But when abortions are restricted or criminalized, people are forced to seek unsafe ways to end pregnancies.
• Trump’s anti-abortion agenda doesn’t just affect people in the US

In the first months of this year, nearly 30 states introduced some form of an abortion ban in their legislature. Fifteen have specifically been working with so-called "heartbeat bills", that would ban abortion after six weeks of pregnancy.These bills are part of a wider movement of anti-abortion measures sweeping the US.Earlier in May, Alabama lawmakers passed a bill to ban abortion outright.And Missouri's sole remaining abortion clinic remains embroiled in a legal battle to keep its operating license from the state health department. If the provider loses, Missouri will become the only US state without an abortion clinic.
