Then there’s the Hyde Amendment which many people on the Right view as the “back-door process” used by Congress to limit abortions in a manner that circumvents Woman’s Rights as outlined in Roe v. Wade. They see the amendment as disproportionately affecting impoverished and minority women who are unable to pay for an abortion which if not performed in a medical facility has caused the deaths of the above-mentioned classes of women.
A Due Process analysis, using planned Parenthood v. Casey demonstrates the Hyde Amendment creates a discriminatory funding scheme that amounts to an “undue burden” that the government places on indigent women seeking an abortion, thereby violating their Due Process rights.
In addition, when the Hyde Amendment is evaluated under the Equal Protection Clause, it shows the Supreme Court was mistaken in its failure to view indigent women as a “suspect class” requiring a heightened level of scrutiny. Additionally, Congressional interests in protecting the life of the fetus are arbitrary and improper under the Hyde Amendment, as outlined by the Equal Protection Clause. Through a discussion of the legislative history and moral objectives of Congress in passing Hyde that’s inconsistent with Roe v. Wade which although Roe is settled law it is still seen as quite an unsettled issue.
Abortion has been available for thousands of years. Nature itself causes abortions called spontaneous abortions which means from natural causes.
Remember this and get it correct. There’s a massive difference between a fetus and a baby. Abortion is about women. Babies are used as a distraction.
Abortion is available wherever the knowledge of the procedure is known and women who want to abort can get and abortion if they have sufficient money. That’s why government uses money to control who can get an abortion but the world is a big place and with sufficient money women will be able to remain in control of their body regardless of what Trump and the religious Right wants to do. .
