Abortion Laws and Politics...


Even though the Texas Legislature passed the "Anti-Abortion" law, it most likely will get stalled by Democrats for years.  The same is true in states where Democrats have passed pro-Abortion legislation and which is being blocked in the courts by Republicans.

We need only view what is happening in other state that have passed pro- or anti- abortion laws.  In either case, the laws have become stalled as the courts decide what will happen.  In many cases, the laws will be stalled for years.

The history of abortion is interesting and worth the read.

The new Wisconsin Abortion law stalled.

An overview of State Abortion laws.

Out of the state's 42 abortion clinics, only six meet the new Texas abortion law.  It would be a big problem for women who want an abortion even before 20 weeks.

In Arizona the Appeals Court struck down the 20-week abortion law.

In Oklahoma the State Supreme Court ruled that the 20-week abortion law was unconstitutional.

The Federal Court ruled that the state of Mississippi cannot enforce onerous admitting privileges designed to close the state’s lone abortion clinic.

Consequently, the issue of pro- or anti- abortion has had a long history of conflict and just because various states have issued laws for or against abortions does not mean those laws will hold up in court.  It will take many more years before any real laws stay on the books.
