3. State level
4. An "enacted" policy that has been passed to help with a problem/ issue individuals/families face.
5. This is most important to two individuals: doctors practicing abortion and mothers who wish to abort. This policy has already been enacted, but is in trial for changes.
6. Abortion has been controversial for centuries. Over the
summer, there was finally a law passed in the state of Texas which was to
restrict many aspects of abortion in the state. Today, this house bill is still
controversial and many debates are still going on. The House Bill 2 or Abortion
Law requires blocking two main parts. The first requirement is for doctors to
gain admitting privileges from a nearby hospital. This restriction makes sense
because many times during abortion practices women can have serious complications.
These complications such as blood clots may be very difficult to handle in a
small clinic and it would be easier to remain under control if it were in a
well equipped facility such as a hospital. The greatest problem with this
requirement is that there are several doctors that would like to remain
anonymous and would not like to be associated as abortion doctors. Many
protesters, knowing the identity of these doctors may harass them because of
their views. The second requirement in the House Bill 2 involves the abortion
inducing drugs. These drugs used to be administered once in the clinic and the
other dosage on your own in the comfort of your own home. With this law it will
now be required to obtain the second dosage also at the clinic. This can be
very uncomfortable for women for who it was first difficult to go to their
first dosage. It may discourage women to abort at a clinic over all.
