Well if politicians are going to ignore


court orders, we have a much bigger problem on our hands (which I admit we do). If the law says a medical exception is allowed and requires the certification of two doctors that the procedure is medically necessary and an AG still decides to prosecute, it should have no more legal merit than if the law say abortion is legal and an AG decides to prosecute anyway

Would you argue for no restrictions at all? An abortion up to 39 weeks because otherwise an overzealous prosecutor might overstep their legal authority?

The vast majority of Europe has a 12 week cutoff with varying degrees of exceptions after that (medical, mental health). I would think we could model our laws after the ones that seem to work throughout Europe.
