The abortion issue has become politicized. In my view, the government (state or federal) should not even be in this issue at all.
First, I submit that abortion is a women’s issue. Last I heard, no man has ever become pregnant (unwillingly or not) and will not have to ever make this decision.
Second, I submit that all women are abortion opponents. It would be wonderful if there was no demand for abortions. Unfortunately, according to research, 25 percent of all women will seek an abortion at least once in their lifetime. It shows there is a demand.
