Texas, along with 10 others, tried that once because the federal government was doing then what it's doing now and acting beyond it's authority.
Texas took this case to the supreme court after is was dismiss by a lower court, so no the court was not acting beyond their authority.
A woman's privacy and her body is her own. She has a reasonable right to accessible health care for services she want and treatment she chooses.
As long as she pays for it. Why should those of us told to butt out of the choice you say is a private one with her body be responsible for subsidizing any of that healthcare and treatment SHE wants?
Abortions have not been funded at all since '76. Not covered by insurance unless the woman's life in jeopardy.
government/tax money only pays in cases of rape.
You say abortions haven't been funded at all since 1976 yet give two examples of where one person can incur the costs of another person's abortion. If you say at all, it means NONE.
Tax money shouldn't be used for any abortion. PERIOD. It's still a choice and her responsibility.
Hyde amendment bars government fund from being used for abortion.
Rape is the exception.
Obamacare make abortion a separate cost of the woman, no government funds
Insurance might cover if life saving necessity. Individual insurance policy would have to be checked.
Tax payer money does not pay for abortions
Pills to induce a miscarriage in a few places are offer for free, but many of them operate on charity donations, not tax dollars. Pharmaceutical companies might also be contributing. For vets the same drugs cost few dollars or less. One of the drugs is a few cents. For people the drugs might cost $20-80 over the counter or $100+ by Rx.
States and stores vary widely
number of weeks different amounts and drugs. Some counter action to meds, allergies and conditions would have to be discussed. For most women the drugs are safe and very effective.
I don't think physical abortions should be a first choice, but each woman has to decide and discuss it with the doctor or nurse practitioner.
Even the "day after pill" has now been approved for the first 7 weeks.
Each woman and case is unique.
