LINK How blue states are pushing back against abortion bans : NPR

(The end result is that republican politicians will enivitably be caught sending their mistresses to blue states to get abortions.)

As the country awaits the U.S. Supreme Court's decision on a case that could overturn Roe v. Wade, Democrat-led states are proposing laws to shore up abortion rights at the local level.

The effort is in direct response to the organized campaign to make abortion illegal. Dozens of states have enacted laws, or are considering them, to restrict access to abortion as the country awaits the Supreme Court's decision.

On Wednesday, Idaho Gov. Brad Little signed S.B. 1309, a ban on most abortions after about six weeks of pregnancy. It also allows for abortion providers in Idaho to be sued, much like the Texas law approved last year.

And earlier this month, the Oklahoma House approved its own near-total abortion ban in the state. Republican lawmakers in Tennessee are looking to follow suit.

Those are just a few of the 519 abortion restrictions introduced in 41 states in 2022, according to the Guttmacher Institute, which supports abortion rights.
