anti-choice states kicking around ideas to stop out of state abortions

[Demovictory9]

The providers, however, are being scrutinized. The anticipated special legislative session would seek to fine-tune the laws regarding abortion.

Representative John Hansen is part of conversations already underway.

“There’s going to be a lot of ideas kicked around. I mean, you look at our trigger law, and there are some amendments that could be made to it,” said Hansen.

Hansen tweeted his intentions for a special session, including this statement: “Require that out-of-state abortionists refer pregnant South Dakota mothers to third-party counseling to screen for pressure and coercion before abortionists can terminate the life of South Dakota babies across state lines.”

1. I don't believe that can happen, legally.

[Demovictory9]

6. they are desperate... the next fight will be over abortion pills and travel for abortion

[Raven123]

14. I agree with you on the next battle lines.

Not sure if they are desperate, or just so obsessed with control over women and their reproductive organs that they just can’t stop. If nothing else, they need to keep these issues front and center, less people step back and suddenly realize the GOP’s platform is otherwise against their (the people) best interests.

2. Not legal.

13. Not Yet, At Least nt

3. *bangs head*

[Solly Mack]

4. I see a lot of lawsuits coming.

[Sogo]

5. He said it!

He's claiming those babies as property of the state of South Dakota....

[Demovictory9]

7. the women and "the babies"

[Deuxcents]

8. Stalking women who may be pregnant

This is beyond caring for the unborn..it’s obscene to be so obsessed about others’ personal lives.

9. They certainly are the Freedom crowd

[Skittles]

10. do they believe in states rights or don't they?

these fucking misogynist assholes cannot keep their stories straight

[SharonClark]

11. The only thing they believe in is furthering

their fascist goals.

[MarineCombatEngineer]

12. He's full of shit.

One state cannot force another state to require that out of state citizens to get counseling.

States where abortion is still legal will tell them to fuck off and mind their own fucking business.

15. You have to wonder if these repubs ever took a civics class in HS.

Or learned anything about law like this guy who went to the University of South Dakota School of Law.

[JHB]

16. It's not necessarily a matter of knowledge. Rule weasels will always twist rules...

...to get the outcome they want

[Deuce]

21. Yes!

[Buns_of_Fire]

17. State "A" can't *require* entities of state "B" to do crap.

Now, if there is a legal "presence" in state "A" (a branch office or clinic, say), there's a hook. But barring that, state "A" can suck it.

[ananda]

19. So they're going to legislate for other states.

I don't think so.

[Bettie]

20. I don't think that one state can make a law

that another state has to follow.

[Deuce]

22. They're just "selling wolf tickets"...
