2) Put everything in Section 3 in an obscure part of some sort of 1000 page contract that the woman has to sign

3) Make the woman sign a waiver where she waives her right to terminate the abortion at her pleasure and transfers such responsibility to the abortionist

Needless to say not a particularly effective bill other than marginally increasing the admin expenses of the abortion clinics


I don't think it would work like that

1 you have to go along with w/the second part of that line or you're making false statements to the patient

2-3 both could work fine, but would be a chilling effect kind of thing, not gonna stop someone who really wants one, but for someone on the fence getting a thousand page liability and a waiver that says you can't say stop would probably knock them to the other side of the fence

And even 3 would be questionable if it could be waived

No one's gonna read the agreement, but for the shaky teenager who got an unexpected preg suddenly being given a thousand pages of liability to sign is gonna get them more scared/thinking twice because they know they're never gonna read it

Shouldn't scare off anyone who's made the decision but might get the fringe cases shook

I’ve been wondering how political figures launch lawsuits. Is Johnson suing himself, or hiring an attorney and finding someone that will sue?

On a related note, how would all these lawsuits (Wilson, Johnson, etc. play out in the IC? Will a player RP a federal judge or will it just be simulated?

He is adding another one, it is common practice to overload lawsuits.

Govs are really in the best spot to do it w/state AGs

Lawsuit outcomes are on the infinite list of reports to do that looms
