Two years after the decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, five Texas women speak out exclusively about being unable to get abortions even though they faced complicated and potentially life-threatening pregnancies. Texas has one of the most restrictive abortion laws in the country. NBC News' Laura Jarrett reports.

Regardless if your for or against abortion...IT IS SOLELY A WOMAN'S PERSONAL RIGHT AND FREEDOM TO CHOOSE what is right for her. These poor women suffered not just physically but emotionally at the hands of legislators (men) and Doctors (who are suppose to heal people with compassion) from their extreme conditions and the severe lack of support during their trauma's. SHAMEFUL!!!!!!! If men had to be pregnant and deliver a baby this wouldn't even be an issue!! And TECHNICALLY, No One knows when the soul enters the body. We have limited knowledge and understanding of the vast infinity of the divine and this also goes against what is known as FREE WILL.

Defending those who can’t defend themselves is a human responsibility. If women were half as fast to get an internal contraceptive placed as they were that experimental jab this would be a moot point.

Especially the one with the baby with trisomy 18. Only 10% live past a year so more than likely that mother would have had to watch her baby suffer with organ failure and other health issues.

It's as if they intentionally omit the death of the child. They keep saying "mother this" and "mother that." If it were my wife or my future child, I know my wife would choose our future child. Killing your child does not make you a responsible parent; it does the opposite. What's worse is that they use you to advocate for gun restrictions for children's safety while cheering for children's dismemberment in the womb in the same breath.

The vote on the Right to Contraception Act was 51-39, falling short of the 60 votes needed to defeat a filibuster and move the bill forward. Republicans said it was unnecessary because the use of birth control is already protected under Supreme Court precedentwhen Democrats held a vote on a bill that would have guaranteed a nationwide right to contraception - which, like IVF, is very popular. That bill, the Right to Contraception act, also failed.Twenty-one states ban abortion or restrict the procedure earlier in pregnancy than the standard set by Roe v. Wade, which governed reproductive rights for nearly half a century until the Supreme Court overturned the decision in 2022.

Because in reality, it's none of your business. The option of abortion should be there for anyone who needs it. How close to death would a mother need to be in cases where the abortion is being sought because the mother's life is in danger?

I think her situation was that she was pregnant with twins, and one was not viable, and there was high risk for both the other twin and the mom, so she had to go out of state to have the procedure that allowed that baby to live. So - yes, that baby may very well say thanks mom for what she did to save him.

Could you be more ignorant? My guess is probably not. Ten biblical episodes and prophecies provide an unequivocal expression of God's attitude toward human life, especially the ontological status of "unborn children" and their pregnant mothers-to-be. Brief summaries: • A pregnant woman who is injured and aborts the fetus warrants financial compensation only (to her husband), suggesting that the fetus is property, not a person (Exodus 21:22-25). • The gruesome priestly purity test to which a wife accused of adultery must submit will cause her to abort the fetus if she is guilty, indicating that the fetus does not possess a right to life (Numbers 5:11-31). • God enumerated his punishments for disobedience, including "cursed shall be the fruit of your womb" and "you will eat the fruit of your womb," directly contradicting sanctity-of-life claims (Deuteronomy 28:18,53). • Elisha's prophecy for soon-to-be King Hazael said he would attack the Israelites, burn their cities, crush the heads of their babies and rip open their pregnant women (2 Kings 8:12). • King Menahem of Israel destroyed Tiphsah (also called Tappuah) and the surrounding towns, killing all residents and ripping open pregnant women with the sword (2 Kings 15:16). • Isaiah prophesied doom for Babylon, including the murder of unborn children: "They will have no pity on the fruit of the womb" (Isaiah 13:18). • For worshiping idols, God declared that not one of his people would live, not a man, woman or child (not even babies in arms), again confuting assertions about the sanctity of life (Jeremiah 44:7-8). • God will punish the Israelites by destroying their unborn children, who will die at birth, or perish in the womb, or never even be conceived (Hosea 9:10-16). • For rebelling against God, Samaria's people will be killed, their babies will be dashed to death against the ground, and their pregnant women will be ripped open with a sword (Hosea 13:16). • Jesus did not express any special concern for unborn children during the anticipated end times: "Woe to pregnant women and those who are nursing" (Matthew 24:19).

Some, including Catholics and Evangelicals, don't approve of any method of family planning. "Ban all birth control," Says Trump-endorsed GOP candidate. MAGA candidate Jacky Eubanks says contraception goes against God's "moral order". Griswold v. Connecticut, 381 U.S. 479, was a landmark decision of the U.S. Supreme Court in which the Court ruled that the Constitution of the United States protects the liberty of married couples to buy and use contraceptives without government restriction. Clarence Thomas wants this ruling to be reconsidered.

A Republican theme on abortions: 'It's OK for me, evil for thee'. Republicans abhor abortions - unless it’s for their mistress, of course. Former head of the Office of Refugee Resettlement Scott Jones, despite his patronizing proselytizing, doesn’t always practice what he preaches. As a young man he drove an ex-girlfriend to get an abortion and paid for half of it. Elliot Broidy, the former RNC deputy finance chairman, paid $1.6m to a Playboy Playmate he had an affair with, after she aborted his child. Tim Murphy, the pro-life Pennsylvania Republican resigned last year after it was revealed he had urged his mistress to consider an abortion. Tennessee Congressman Scott DesJarlais supported his ex-wife's decision to get two abortions before their marriage. The former doctor also allegedly pressured a patient he was having an affair with to get an abortion. Even after all that information came out DesJarlais still had the gall to vote for anti-abortion bills and boast of having a “100% pro-life voting record." The Guardian
