    When do people generally first start showing signs of pregnancy? Like 4 week or so?

    I don’t think it’s reasonable to ban abortions before you could ever hope to find out you’re pregnant. This is too close to being a defacto ban

      Thats the point of it all. They create a technical ban, but when someone tries to call them out or maybe tries to find something that would make a ban illegal they say “vut actually its not really a ban!!!”

        Real Republicans would say it’s not the governments business to meddle with abortion laws, even if it is just a state law

          I watched a republican senator from Missouri sign on to an objection to the PA mail-in voting system in 2020. What happened to state’s right?! We had a republican senator at that time. They didn’t see the need to object. The old “rules” don’t exist. Fuck Republicans
