I live in Alabama, and I'm sick about this backward, cruel legislation. I'd like to post this article on Facebook to let my FB friends know about the donors to these medieval-thinking legislators. Would that be permissible?

Unbelievable; my blood is boiling over the hypocrisy of these companies. Thank you for researching this back story.

As someone who supports a woman's right to choose for herself whether or not she can have an abortion, it pains me to see this, and it equally pains me to predict that Roe v. Wade is as good as dead when one of these cases reaches the Supreme Court. They're going to turn the issue back over the states, and then we will see a return to the days of backroom abortions and women dying because they can't get the appropriate level of care at a recognized medical facility.

Oh, and lest anyone think that the pro-birthers (I refuse to call them pro-life, because one the birth takes place, they don't give a rat's ass about you.) are done, they will come after the blue states as well. They are well-organized, well-financed and motivated.

The law covers "crossing State lines" to perform a procedure.

That provision, alone, guarantees the law's constitutionality will be questioned; and eventually, that the law may end-up in the hands of the SCOTUS (This is all: No accident.)
