Here is what I proposed as a new amendment:

"No legal abortions shall be permitted after the first trimester of a womans' pregnancy, unless the woman was a victim of rape, or a medical doctor confirms that the mothers' health would be in serious danger if the pregnancy was to continue, and she was forced to bear a child."

Here is what I would like if I could have my way:

"No legal abortions shall be permitted after the first timester of a womans' pregnancy, unless the woman was a victim of rape, or a medical doctor confirms that the mothers' or fetus' health would be severly impaired or in morbid danger if the pregnancy was to continue, and the mother was forced to bear a child."

Basically, I would like to have another exception for severe complications of the baby. Some tests to determine the health or otherwise of fetuses canot be performed until the 16th week, in the second trimester.

I would like to include that, but it isn't practical.

Is it not better to at least allow some form of abortion, txg, then leaving the situation in a state of limbo? At least this way we will have a law that wll allow for extreme cases to abort their pregnancy for the whole term.

 
 
 
 
 
 

first trimester without restraint.
second AND third trimesters in cases of rape,incest and the possibility of harm or death to the mother.

If you want a compromise, I would suggest a reaffirmation of the terms of Roe. First trimester, no restrictions. Second Trimester, regulations to promote maternal health allowed if not creating an undue burden. Third trimester, state has the power to criminalize abortion if exceptions are made for life, health, rape, and incest.
works for me.
