Abortion is a medical procedure resulting in the termination of a human pregnancy and death of a fetus. Abortion was banned in 30 states until the 1973 Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade. The ruling made abortion legal in all 50 states but gave them regulatory powers over when abortions could be performed during a pregnancy. On June 24, 2022, the Supreme Court overruled Roe v. Wade in the case Dobbs v. Jackson. The court ruled that the substantive right to abortion was not “deeply rooted in this Nation’s history or tradition”, nor considered a right when the Due Process Clause was ratified in 1868.

If you can't force someone to donate organs to save someone's life, then you can't force someone to use their body to create another life.

Allow as a last resort and in extreme cases; disallow after the first three months. All federal efforts should be made to reduce the number of abortions through social services (birth control, sex education, etc.) and incentivizing alternatives like adoption.

It is a women's issue and should only be determined by women or those with the capability of giving birth EXCLUSIVELY.
It is exclusively the vote of women, not of men or those who cannot physically give birth
@JakHavIK 1yr1Y
Pro-life, but allow state and local governments to determine if abortion should be legal or illegal instead of a nation wide ban.
@thansidwell3yrs3Y
Pro-choice in the first trimester, in second and third pro-life
@94SPCTZ3yrs3Y
If your beliefs don’t allow it, then don’t do it. If they do, then do what you need to do.
@93RWGK43yrs3Y
Pro Life but against all government banning of abortion
Pro-life, but both allowing in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child, as well as providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions
@Pantallica20014yrs4Y
Pro-life, oppose for victims of rape or incest, allow if the mother or child's health is in danger
Pro-life, through providing birth control, sex education, paid parental leave, and more social services which will help reduce the number of abortions. Social Services would include Medicare For All, Universal Pre-K, Free School Meals, etc. which would reduce economic hardship faced by those who choose to have a child. Also improving the Foster Care system for those who do not choose to keep their child.
@8SSB9XX4yrs4Y
Pro-choice, I support the theory of evictionism

@8RM6DZ6Libertarian5yrs5Y
Pro-Life, but don't Ban until after 8 weeks. Them only make an exception for medical emergencies.
It's revealing of the utter blackness and depravity human nature is that this is even up for debate. Murder is murder, life is life, zero exceptions. God save us all from the judgment we so richly deserve.
@94DL844Republican3yrs3Y
Pro-life, let states decide if they want abortion laws or not.
@98JQYHH3yrs3Y
your body , your choice i personally wouldnt get one but everyones curcumstances are different
@9672MJB3yrs3Y
I am 1000% pro choice and when you frame the opposing side as “pro life” you do a massive disservice to millions of people who possess the intellectual integrity to see the difference. Pro choice ALSO encapsulates a “pro life” stance, just not the one Christian fanatics advocate we all be forced to live by

@9SBYJW4Republican1yr1Y
Regardless, It should be up to the states
@ConnorSHLibertarian3yrs3Y
Pro-life, but the government should not be involved in either side. Instead private groups should work to help provide better alternatives to abortion.
@8YSXPPV4yrs4Y
Pro-life, but allow in cases that danger the mother or child
@8T4F7454yrs4Y
Pro-Life, but providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of infanticides
@8NYN2345yrs5Y
Pro able to remove baby, anti-killing baby
Pro choice but only for population control.
Pro choice but only because of population control
Pro choice but only to control the human population.
Pro-life, and I also oppose abortion for victims of rape and incest, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions
@874Z3NVLibertarian5yrs5Y
Keep the government out of it, no subsidies, no regulations.
Pro-life, and I also oppose abortion for victims of rape and incest, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions so that they don't happen in the first place
@8S4VH5F4yrs4Y
Pro-life, but I support abortions being legal and that it is up to you, your doctor, and your faith.
@BestPoliticsIN4yrs4Y
Pro-life, except in cases of rape, as in all other cases the mother chose not to use protection
