Colorado lawmakers want to harvest extensive personal data from people who get abortions



By Oliver Willis -March 24, 2021 10:29 AM

The new proposal comes after Colorado voters overwhelmingly rejected abortion restrictions in the 2020 elections.

Colorado Republicans are supporting new legislation that would force patients who have had an abortion to disclose an in-depth amount of personal information. Doctors and nurses who fail to interrogate their patients for the data would be considered in violation of the law.

Colorado State Rep. Stephanie Luck (R) recently introduced HB21-1183, "Induced Termination Of Pregnancy State Registrar," along with several Republican co-sponsors. The bill is currently under consideration by the Legislature.

The bill would require that patients who receive an abortion to be interrogated by health care providers required to collect a laundry list of information or be penalized with a violation of the state's medical laws for "unprofessional conduct."

Hey Stephanie Luck can I call you Stephanie , apparently you have your priorities mixed up, your right wing fucking fascist' party asks for more information on abortion than what information is needed for someone to buy a fucking gun, in fact your /my former state has a open carrier for all the paranoid people that like to walk around with one .........

there's an implied threat with it.
