Idaho health care providers can refer patients for abortions out of state, judge rules
District Judge B. Lynn Winmill called it a First Amendment issue.
A federal judge has ruled that it would violate Idaho medical providers’ free speech rights to sanction them for referring patients to out-of-state abortion services, rejecting the state attorney general’s interpretation of Idaho’s abortion ban.
Colorado, the individual freedom state, will assist. It's wrong that any state that forces women to get pregnant and doesn't pay that woman $10K a year per child to cover it.
Who's forcing women to get pregnant?
Edit: I'm genuinely confused, was the original comment just a typo that I'm not understanding?
I don't disagree that it's wrong to force women into what essentially amounts as slavery, but where do you come up with paying them $10k per year? First, you can't raise a kid on that. Second, why would the government pay you? If you have a child voluntarily you shouldn't have to be paid. If you're having a child under duress, paying you doesn't fix the wrong that has been done to you.
The party of freeze peach strikes again.
Fuck, this is the worst dystopia.
If a state makes abortion restrictions, the least they can do is give the patient resources to go somewhere where it's legal, and have absolutely 0 laws that restrict them from going to another state to get an abortion.
Good news: here in Newport, WA, our hospital has re-opened the birthing center, and a second clinic is under construction. I assume a lot of the patients that we'll get will be from Idaho's Boundary and Bonner counties.
