Birth control should not be taken away either, it provides women a way to control periods and it gives safe sex without murdering a child that doesn't even have a way to stand up for its self yet.
Here are the top political news stories for today.

Making abortion illegal removes a person’s ability to make decisions about their own body, health, and future. Every pregnancy is different, and not everyone is physically, emotionally, or financially prepared to carry a pregnancy to term. Some pregnancies result from rape, incest, or pose serious health risks to the pregnant person. In these cases, forcing someone to continue a pregnancy can cause immense trauma and suffering.
Legal abortion doesn’t force anyone to have one—it simply gives people the freedom to choose based on their own values, beliefs, and circumstances. Banning abortion takes away that freedom and replaces it with a one-size-fits-all rule that ignores the complexity of real life.
Abortion is needed in certain situations, if the mother will die, or if the baby will die. If the mother is underaged, or if the situation that the baby will be born into will be bad and the mother cannot care for it. People will say to put the baby into the foster care system, but that is already overpopulated with children. Less people are adopting because of inflation and the prices rising, it’s hard to care for a child. Birth control should be accessible to everyone and anyone. Abortion is not murder, and most abortions do not happen unless needed.

If a child is raped or other extreme circumstances a child should not have to give birth to another child, it's inhumane. as well as children who aren't taught safe sex. while abortions shouldn't be used as birth control they also shouldn't be taken away from people who need them like children and women with physical or mental health concerns. we already have enough children without families or homes we don't need to add more and put women at risk. Abortions is not murder, when done within a certain time frame, the fetus wouldn't have even had thoughts or feeling yet because it has still not grown that ability and is best described as a parasite. Your beliefs should not affect other people who have different views and opinions especially when you don't know the circumstances.

Abortion is a necessary procedure used for issues other than terminating a healthy fetus. Many women have needed abortions to remove deceased fetuses from the uterus. In cases of rape or child pregnancy, an abortion might be necessary to save the life of the mother, who is a living human. Abortion is not murder unless it is past a stage where it could feel pain or exist outside of the womb.

Most abortion cases are coming from victims of rape, incest, or abusive situations. No matter what the reason is, abortion right is a woman's right, it is a human right. A woman should have the power to choose and decide for her health instead of being restricted or denied of an ideology. There are a variety of ways to reduce the percentage of abortions, for instance, better sex education and being open-minded about protection, such as condoms. These solutions will keep the current society safe and reduce the abortion percentage. Instead of banning this right and labeling it as "murder," we should be more empathetic and "switch" our point of view on the woman and why they wants this abortion.

I believe that women should have the choice on what to do. Yeah if you're conceiving you have that chance of being pregnant and I think that if you know the risks then you shouldn't have an abortion. That isn't my saying or the governments saying either. It is up to the mother whether she wants the baby or not. Yes, it can cause complications but there is risks with everything. Birth control should not be taken away either because it does help with periods and it is a prevention of children although not 100%, but still a way of safe sex.
In my eyes, a baby doesn't even have a chance to live until it's officially born. And if the possibility of severe complications arise during the pregnancy, the mother should be allowed to terminate the child because that child has not seen the light of day, and if it's possible the child's life will end up being very hard amidst some kind of developmental or physical disability, it might be for the child's own good for the mother to save face and abort.

With pregnancies (some unwanted, those due to rape), the mother's life can be taken away. The "baby" isn't formed until months after conception and I believe that the life of the mother is more important than the life of a fetus. With rape, it is sexual assault and should be against the morality of everyone.

Abortion is not murder when it is still a fetus in the stomach and hasn’t grown any human features yet. Abortion should be used circumstantially if raped or if the woman’s life is at risk. If a teenager was just being stupid then those consequences are on them. But abortion is not murdering something that doesn’t even have a gender or any human features.

I don't think abortion is murder. Saying you shouldn't take away birth control because it helps is also kind of contradictory. There are women who need to have abortions for medical reasons like, they could die if they have the baby or the baby will die after being birthed. If you're using the stance that "the Bible says it's wrong" the Bible also states that life is started after the first breath, so that also has its contradictions.

I agree with this. While attempting to micromanage moral choices can seriously backfire, I don’t agree with handing out birth control like candy because “they’re already doing it.” While you can’t legislate morality in the strictest sense, our laws at least partially reflect our values. If we value the lives and well being of the unborn and the born, it is a mistake to enable irresponsible behavior that leads to children being produced who are unwanted and grow up in situations that make their flourishing overly difficult. Moral defeatism is not the answer.

I agree with the abortion part of this. Abortion is considered murder in my opinion, it is a living thing and grows within the women's womb, creating a human-being. Although I agree with the abortion part, birth control should NOT be took away. Birth control helps women with more than just preventing pregnancy and it is very unlikely to become pregnant while on the pill or whichever form of birth control a female is taking/using.
