They didn't say the woman couldn't have the abortion. However, I think there will be all sorts of problems with this because forcing a woman to have a vaginal ultrasound would be tantamount to rape.
They are not forcing the woman to have an ultrasound. In fact, they are hoping she doesn't have the ultrasound. The legislature is using the ultrasound as way to reduce the number of women that get abortions. Many women won't have the extra money for an ultrasound so they'll have the baby instead. If they're that poor that an ultrasound is too expensive, then they'll probably be on various forms of welfare once the baby is born, and actually for the birth as well. Tens of thousands of dollars cost to the state taxpayers if the mother and child are on welfare for awhile.
Or they are hoping if the woman has the ultrasound, that she'll change her mind and decide to keep the baby after having the ultrasound.
Some progressive large corporations that are looking to add new facilities in new locations might cross KY off their list due to the backwards laws of the state.
Wonder how many young people leave KY each year once they finish college. Brain drain.
Oh so what ? If a woman is thinking of consenting to an abortion, then she's already agreeing to a Dr. shoving plenty of instruments up in there.
Or being prescribed a couple of pills that are taken orally. No "shoving" anything in there needed for many abortions.
Plus consent to one medical procedure doesn't mean that you consent to anything but that one medical procedure. If I have a part of my liver removed the doctor can't just decide to remove part of my lung too just since he already taking parts of organs anyways. The government can not require me to have a non medically necessary medical procedure or even a necessary medical procedure. I can even refuse tests my doctor wants me to have.

I see women leaving these ignorant states in the future. Who wants to put up with such nonsense?
This is a little over the top. They could give the woman a pamphlet explaining the fetus has a heartbeat, showing it's approximate size, since they think women are too ignorant to know what a fetus is. No need for this procedure that should be limited to use for medical reasons.

I don't think you can take abortion pills as late as a heartbeat but maybe. There is no single step in most any medical procedure. You agree to a medical procedure then a whole hosts of steps and things are done that you have no forehand knowledge of and may not have wanted to do. This is just changing or adding a step in the procedure, but adding it up front to be better informed if you want to go through all the steps of the procedure..
Well I am for doctors being required to provide more information to patients instead of the assembly line of the Dr. rushing you to do a life altering procedure because he's a Dr. and wants to make more money.
You have no clue what you are talking about. They get counseling first. There is no rush to do anything.
