Why do they even need a database of pregnant women? I get that GOP is trying to take away a woman’s autonomy and all that, but what’s the official public reason they’re giving?

Thank you for posting this link. Good to know. The text includes this:

The bill prohibits information from organizations, including any affiliates, subsidiaries, successors and clinics, that "perform, induce, refer for, or counsel in favor of abortions, or provide financial support to any other organization that conducts such activities."

Q: Does the bill also prohibit organizations that are against abortions?

[–] SpoopyKing@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 6 months ago

The main point of the bill is to provide grants to organizations that provide resources for pregnant people. The bill specifically excludes organizations that offer abortion services from receiving those grants.
