SENATE BILL: The It's Not Up To You Act (Law'd)

[HagridOfTheDeep]

I second the motion to table.

You might find that it has more support than you think, polnut. I'd give it a go, but it's up to you.

I believe Marokai's concern also came up last time around. There's no good answer. I ended up proposing wording that everyone seemed to support, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was. I believe it's in the final text of the law though.

Nay

As I said during discussions on the original bill, "health of the mother" is incredibly vague. Pregnancy by its very nature jeopardizes the "heath of the mother." If a pregnant woman wants a late-term abortion but her health is not really at serious risk, the "health of the mother" exception is broad enough that she could still probably have her child aborted. This change waters down the bill too much.
