Court upholds Texas abortion law that could leave state with only seven clinics

[Blackrook]

All this new law does is require abortion clinics to meet minimal medical standards that hospitals in Texas are already comply with.

Most of the remaining clinics, though, were immediately thrown into a state of limbo, with many abortion providers expected to close – if they weren’t in the process of closing already.

Texas’s omnibus law – known as HB2 – is part of a legislative trend to limit access to abortions by regulating facilities, providers and doctors. The added red tape forces clinics that cannot afford to make the upgrades to close. Moreover, hospitals often require doctors to admit a minimum number of patients before they’re granted admitting privileges.

People like you have no problem when excess regulation and red tape close down other businesses that don't provide abortions.

I guess abortion is the only business you approve of.

[Hossfly]

I happen to think that abortion is idiotic.
It's become as passe and convenient as a drive-up taco joint.

The Supreme Court based its abortion access decision on the right of personal privacy...

Roe v. Wade Its basis court philosophies and political aspects

If only the fetus were considered a person, maybe it too would have privacy rights.

...or would it?

Give it up Mr. H. The Socialist Progressive pukes think it's just peachy dandy for some trollop to have a night of recreational sex, get knocked up and let the stupid taxpayers pay to have the whelp aborted. That's what we're here for in their feeble minds.

You pay for it then and see how lame it is.

Court upholds Texas abortion law that could leave state with only seven clinics US news The Guardian

Abortion providers will ask the US supreme court to consider Texas’s severe anti-abortion powers after a federal appeals court on Tuesday upheld the most restrictive provisions of a state law that could leave the second largest state in the US with fewer than 10 abortion clinics.

A three-judge panel on the fifth US circuit court of appeals, one of the nation’s most conservative courts, found that Texas could require abortion clinics to meet hospital-level operating standards, which opponents say are too expensive for small providers and clinics. The state argued in a challenge brought by abortion providers that the law’s building and equipment regulations are meant to protect women’s health.

Opponents of the Republican-backed law, among the most restrictive in the US, say the decision could leave women across the vast expanse of Texas with access to just a handful of clinics, forcing them to travel more than 100 miles to seek an abortion.

“Not since before Roe v Wade [in 1973] has a law or court decision had the potential to devastate access to reproductive healthcare on such a sweeping scale,” said Nancy Northup, president and CEO of the Center for Reproductive Rights, which challenged the law.

The Center for Reproductive Rights, along with the Texas women’s healthcare providers, said they plan to appeal the case to the nation’s highest court, arguing that the regulations may force all but seven clinics in Texas to close.

see the problem with what they're doing is that all there hurting our poor women who can afford to have children. rich women and their parents to make the drive to the 7 clinics or even to another state. these laws that Republicans pass only hurt the poor these Republicans are hypocrites. similar situation Gordie Howe got sick and had to fly to California for very effective stem cell therapy treatment that are illegal in Michigan. how many poor people in Michigan get sick like he did but can't fly to California because they can't afford to?

Exactly, but it's well known that the right wing, truly, DOES NOT CARE ABOUT WORKING PEOPLE. Only the rich, the capitalists, as shown through all of the rhetoric over the past 40 years, but that's a different thing entirely.

Cuba would suit your mentality more than Texas. Feel free to move there.

See, there it is! You object to poor women getting their treatment at clinics that meet hospital-level operating standards! You don't want them to receive their treatment at a place that is fully prepared to deal with any health crisis that might occur during the course of the procedure or even meet minimum cleanness standards that each hospital has to meet.

You'd be more intellectually honest if you would just demand that the abortions be done with a coat hanger!

This is ridiculous, how idiotic do you have to be? Oh wait, it's Texas..
Court upholds Texas abortion law that could leave state with only seven clinics US news The Guardian

see the problem with what they're doing is that all there hurting our poor women who can afford to have children. rich women and their parents to make the drive to the 7 clinics or even to another state. these laws that Republicans pass only hurt the poor these Republicans are hypocrites. similar situation Gordie Howe got sick and had to fly to California for very effective stem cell therapy treatment that are illegal in Michigan. how many poor people in Michigan get sick like he did but can't fly to California because they can't afford to?

Exactly, but it's well known that the right wing, truly, DOES NOT CARE ABOUT WORKING PEOPLE. Only the rich, the capitalists, as shown through all of the rhetoric over the past 40 years, but that's a different thing entirely.

Actually, the problem with what you want is that you are sentencing those you claim to support to receive substandard care. You want them to get their abortions in some dirty doctor's office? Why not just go ahead and relegate them to an alley somewhere?

No one is saying the women can't get abortions. They just have to have it done in a location that will be safe and clean. Why do you object to that? Why do you hate poor women?

You clearly didn't bother to read into the law, nor realize that the clinics did have safe, clean conditions, they are purposefully giving clinics ridiculous expectations, when they barely have enough funding as is, so they are forced to close. Look up some of the clinics they're closing and get back to me. Get your head out of your ass.

Why do we need all these abortions? Are all those fetuses diseased?

Women need access to safe medical care and abortions, they will get them done anyway, it's either a back alley or a clinic. It's clear what you want.

if women in Texas age 18 and now because that's the voting age don't care then why should I? They can do only one thing about it and thats show up and vote.
