The 6 Worst Attacks on Reproductive Health in 2013

Yesterday, we discussed the latest GOP assault on reproductive rights: rape insurance in Michigan. As we mentioned, 2013 has been another banner year for opponents of abortion rights, with at least 84 new anti-abortion measures enacted in states across the country.

ThinkProgress’ Tara Culp-Ressler rounds up the six worst attacks of the year in the GOP’s ongoing war on women:

1. North Dakota and Arkansas approved the harshest abortion bans in the nation.

In March, Arkansas enacted a 12-week abortion ban, cutting off access to reproductive care far before the parameters established under Roe v. Wade, which guarantees legal abortion rights until around 24 weeks of pregnancy. At the time, it was the harshest abortion ban in the country. But not to be outdone, anti-choice lawmakers in North Dakota soon surpassed that record. Later that month, North Dakota enacted a six-week abortion ban, outlawing the procedure at a point before many women even realize they’re pregnant. North Dakota’s governor admitted that he approved that law because he wants to provoke a Supreme Court challenge to Roe. Both laws are currently awaiting their day in court.

2. Texas passed a sweeping law that’s forced one third of the state’s clinics to shut down.

Over the last six months, Texas is the state that’s most frequently landed in the headlines because of its abortion policy. This summer, as Texas lawmakersconsidered a package of stringent abortion restrictions that inspired massive grassroots protests, the fight captured national attention. Despite the outcry against the proposed measure — one poll estimated that 80 percent of Texas voters opposed the anti-choice bill — it passed, and was upheld by Texas’extremely conservative appeals court. It began going into effect at the beginning of November.

That’s created a bleak landscape for the estimated 26 million people who live in the Lone Star State. About one third of the state’s abortion clinics have shut down, and the remaining ones are dealing with huge patient loads while operating at a reduced capacity. According to the ACLU’s estimations, about 9 million Texans don’t live within easy access to a nearby clinic anymore, a new reality that’s taking the biggest toll on low-income and rural women in the state.

3. South Dakota, home to the nation’s longest abortion waiting period, extended it even further.

In South Dakota, women are required to wait 72 hours before they’re allowed to have an abortion, a requirement that’s intended to give them the opportunity to think about their decision and ultimately change their minds. Waiting periods arecondescending anti-choice policies that have spread across the country, and typically mandate a 24-hour wait. But in South Dakota, women must wait three full days before proceeding with an abortion procedure — and this year, lawmakers voted to exclude weekends and holidays from that time period. Apparently,women can’t think on weekends. The new requirement means that some women won’t be able to access abortion for six days, if they first visit a clinic right before a three-day holiday weekend.

Studies have proven that mandatory waiting periods don’t actually influence women’s decisions at all, since the majority of women seeking abortions have already made up their own minds before seeking out a doctor.

4. Abortion opponents consistently refused to make exceptions for rape victims.

The issue of rape and abortion access has become particularly contentious over the past year, after several Republican lawmakers made controversial commentson the subject in the lead-up to the 2012 election. At least in terms of messaging, this tends to be a losing area for abortion opponents, since Americansoverwhelmingly favor legal abortion access for victims of sexual assault. But in terms of policy, there were lots of advancements in this area. The majority of state-level abortion restrictions enacted in 2013 didn’t include an exception for rape victims. Even on a national level, when the House advanced a 20-week abortion ban, lawmakers only added a rape exception as an afterthought following a public outcry. Despite the outrage over Todd Akin, his worldview is prevailing.

Indeed, this issue came to a head very recently. Earlier this week, Michigan lawmakers approved an anti-choice measure that requires women to purchase a separate insurance ride if they want abortion coverage, even in cases of rape or incest. Opponents have decried the measure as “rape insurance.”

5. Mississippi’s governor tried to end abortion for good in his state — and actually admitted what he was doing.

At the very beginning of the year, Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant (R) acknowledgedsomething that most anti-choice lawmakers prefer to leave unspoken: His goal isn’t to make abortion safer. He’s trying to end abortion for good.

Mississippi only has one abortion clinic left in the entire state, and it’s been on the brink of shutting down ever since state lawmakers enacted stringent regulationsrequiring abortion doctors to obtain admitting privileges from local hospitals. That’s a medically unnecessary requirement, and most abortion doctors aren’t able to comply with it — so it’s an effective way to force them to stop practicing. On the surface, though, the anti-choice community typically claims admitting privileges are simply intended to ensure patient safety. Bryant acknowledged that’s not exactly true. “My goal is of course to shut it down,” he said in reference to the state’s lone clinic.

Even though Mississippi’s only clinic has managed to hang on — in April, a federal judge temporarily blocked the state from enforcing the stringent law — anti-choice groups are still fighting to shut it down.

6. State lawmakers pulled out all the stops to sneak through unpopular anti-choice laws.

One of the things that defined 2013 was the unorthodox manner by which many of these new abortion restrictions made it into law. Many of this year’s anti-choice legislation was extremely unpopular among voters, inspired massive protests, and got approved anyway because lawmakers pulled out all the stops.

Again, Texas is the best example of this. After a proposed anti-abortion law failed to advance during the regular session, Gov. Rick Perry (R) simply called multiple special sessions over the summer to give lawmakers more time to push it through. This process involved rushing the bill through in the middle of the nightand cutting off public testimony. The legislature spent so much time focusing on passing the abortion restrictions that they didn’t have time to get anything else done, like pass a transportation bill to keep the roads paved, so Perry ended up needing to call lawmakers back for a third special session in the summer.

But the Lone Star State is hardly alone. Ohio enacted harsh abortion restrictions by attaching them to an unrelated budget bill. North Carolina forced abortion restrictions through as a rider on a motorcycle safety bill. Lawmakers in Arkansasand Michigan circumvented their top state executives to enact abortion laws without gubernatorial approval. “These extreme restrictions are so unpopular that politicians can’t pass them through the regular democratic process. Instead, they’re using every trick in the book,” Planned Parenthood Action Fund’s Cecile Richards recently noted in a statement.

Readers: I know the questions just keeps being broached but so far we haven’t had any answers. So I will ask it again…”Why are these women voting for, hanging out with, married to…the GOP?” Sylvia said it recently, “I don’t understand why women support these idiots.“ Ugh. Neither do I. I just want to say, “Get a life. Or at least get a voice, and blog me.”

Ohh…there is some fiery stuff in your comments. Keep ‘em coming. Blog me.

Peace out.

Haven’t we been told that there is no difference between democratic politicians and republican politicians by members of DU? The same DU members that constantly complain about President Obama. hmmm- kinda makes one wonder about the truthfulness of some DU members…

What are we to make of the veracity and intention of DU members that make this claim? There are no progressives or real democrats involved in the congressional republican war on women. PLENTY of democrats and progressives are willing and wanting to defend women’s rights as a force for good.

But DU’s resident teabagger sock puppets and Obama Derangement Syndrome sufferers want us to believe that the democratic party is the same as the republican party and we are all watching the end of times because of Woo! and the hero Snowden.

Why do teabaggers and the tin foil hat brigade hate the truth?

One wouldn’t expect to read that type of garbage on a Democratic blog like Michelle’s.

But sadly, our side of the spectrum also has its own share of people with tunnel vision. Apparently none of the glaring differences between the two parties matter to this crowd, whether it’s Obama doubling up Bush ll in job growth in roughly 4 years, the GOP’s money-wasting efforts to repeal health care and outlaw contraceptives, the GOP’s unwillingness to embrace marriage equality, or us drawing down wars and being fairly safe from terrorist attacks under Democratic administrations.

Yep, forget all of that stuff–the Democratic Party is still GOP-lite. Obama is still this thirdwaycenterrightmoderateRepublican in sheep’s clothing, doing Bush’s work.

Hell, I’ve even heard people claiming that Obama is to the right of Reagan. Now that is some of the silliest shit I have ever heard. If I remember correctly, Reagan started a war, Obama has not.

Reagan lowered top taxes drastically from how they were under Carter. Obama has pushed to raise them.

Reagan used the Southern Strategy to stoke resentment of White conservatives towards Blacks, Obama did not. Reagan was anti-gay, while Obama is the 1st sitting president to endorse marriage equality.

I’d like to say to each and every republican, how disgusting that you think my reproduction is your business.
Craig Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:05 pm
Tracey, Why is it disgusting? You believe the fetus has an immortal soul, and if aborted goes straight to heaven. If it had been carried to term and survived to adulthood, the world being the liberal, immoral cesspit you see it as being, the chances are overwhelming it would have ended up in the hell in which you are absolutely convinced the vast majority of us will spend eternity. 

If you were true to your purported beliefs, you’d be encouraging women to have abortions so that as few people as possible would wind up in hell – but that isn’t really what you want. What you want is for the vast majority of humanity to be tormented for all of eternity while you watch and giggle like a schoolgirl.

How bizarre to refer to removal of a kidney-bean sized piece of tissue as “baby-killing.”
Terral Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:06 pm
97% of abortions are done in the first trimester, with many as pill abortions where a woman takes 2 pills and has her period. What baby? We are speaking of a clot of tissue 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch long like the line on the other side of this arrow > — Does that look like a baby to you? 
Siumi Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:09 pm
We used to be an unjoined sperm and egg. Are we going to protect those now? Shall we prohibit masturbation, wet dreams and women who aren’t sexually active?

Human cells do not a baby make.  If you only have to be alive with human DNA to be considered a person, then somebody should go tell biology departments everywhere to stop murdering their tissue samples.

Screw medical science, those genetically modified cancer cells you’re breeding are practically infants!  Many women, myself included, don’t consider real human life to begin until there is actual neural activity that responds to outside influence. Before that, there is no awareness and there is no person.

Some of the cell cultures in a lab I interned at were real human tissue. They were not babies. They didn’t think, they didn’t hurt and they didn’t care when they put in bio-hazard bags after a particular study was done. People can think and feel and like and want. Newly implanted cells can do NONE of this.

Free contraceptives should be provided by the state for all people over 16 who request them. That way, unplanned pregnancies will be far rarer in the first place and the abortion debate will slowly fizzle away.

 If the religious right were actually pro-life, they would support this method (which doesn’t cause suffering to a conscious being as a VERY-late-term abortion might) that would reduce the number of unplanned pregnancies, homeless and neglected children, children who might turn to crime, and single mothers.

The simple solution is to get more WOMEN into these legislatures. They represent more than 50% of the population; they live longer; they work together better than those imbeciles there now; they’re usually better organized. 

Come on ladies, let’s get it done!!! And after restoring all of the health issues they’ve denied, the next order of business will be to set a tax of $100 on every Viagra/Cialis pill to help fun moe women’s clinics. 
Sonja Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:15 pm
Republicans instead of dealing with the issue, attack the presenter. Are they afraid of seeing women in power? Does it threaten them the same way talking about homosexuality does? Do they think their god will love them less if they thought more women in power was a good idea?

Are they even capable of having a rational discussion about how much better off our society will be when it has a plurality of women running things?  

I have, are collector’s editions of some great old comics that some ancestors of theirs wanted banned in the 50s. Now they’re worth a fortune. Talk about unexpected consequences!!
Reggie Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:20 pm
Sonja#12, As a male I agree with this statement. Women represent large amounts of population, large amounts of economic activity, and have much more engagement with the process of childbearing and child-rearing. 
Karin Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:22 pm
I have said it often, and I will continue saying it… The ruling classes are hypocrites – as soon as one of *their* wives / daughters / mistresses becomes pregnant at an ‘inconvenient’ time, she will be loaded onto a plane, whisked off to some “den of iniquity” where abortion is still legally and safely performed, and her ‘baby’ will be flushed down the toilet before she can draw a breath. 

The rich and powerful will *always* be able to abort their foetuses, but will endeavour to make it damn near impossible for poor women to do the same, including invoking the sanction of invisible friends to do so. 

Why is this so? In class society, the family, hierarchical and heteronormative, serves for the transmission of property in the class that has it and the transmission of ‘discipline’ and obedience to authority in the class that doesn’t.

It also serves the breed the next generation of ‘owners’ on the one hand, and the next generation of “disposable human resources on the other.

So, the owners need legitimate heirs – and *only* legitimate heirs – while the non-owners must be made to “breed like rabbits” to provide the next generation of labourers to make the rich richer and cannon fodder to die in wars that the rich provoke with their greed. 
Tracey Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:24 pm
When men or women presume to be in charge of all womens bodies and their reproductive choices, because of their myths and fairytales called religion….It is time for these people to sit down and read our constitution and our laws.
Matt Says:

Abortion will always be with us-either legal and safe or illegal and unsafe. What is wrong with these nuts who don’t understand this?

Republicans are in training to learn to talk to women. They should learn that actions are far better than the phoney talking points they are given..

Every anti-choice Republican is just plain unsympathetic to women and should be removed from office.

Tracey#15, no one claims to be in charge of your “reproductive choices.” The decision to have sex (and thereby offspring), is yours…and presumably your partner’s. Claiming abortion is a “reproductive choice” is like claiming filicide is just a parenting technique.

December 20th, 2013 at 1:39 pm
Scott#22:

So what is your point, that there are scoundrel in the medical profession? Dr. Gosnell was the exception not the rule when it comes to abortion services and care.

As a male, perhaps you should develop ,more sensitivity to the circumstances that pregnant women find themselves in. Like lack of money to raise a child or other needs such as self-development before embarking on family making.

Abortion and contraception should be free to all women. Over 50% of pregnancies are unintended. A reduction in these pregnancies would help reduce abortions. Hopefully the ACA will reduce unintended pregnancies because women will no longer have to pay for contraceptives..

Scott Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:45 pm
Matt#25, Who’s going to pay for all those “free” abortions? That would make abortion as a contraceptive even more common. I don’t have to be pro-infanticide to have sensitivity for women. But you shouldn’t be having sex if you can’t split the cost for a condom.  
Mindy Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:46 pm
In Toledo, Ohio, they closed down both of our abortion service providers because the two secular hospitals refused to agree to give them admitting privileges.

It’s a shame, because now women have to travel hours to Detroit, Cleveland or Columbus multiple times in order to receive abortion care. 
RL Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:47 pm
No mention of how the male pill is being suppressed. Shocking. 
Matt Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:49 pm
Scott#28:

Condoms don’t work as well as IUD’s and some other long term contraception, so poor women have not been able to afford the best contraception.

Contraception and abortion saves money in the long run for all kinds of social costs: such as decreased education, job loss, environmental costs of additional humans, etc. Hence the few dollars to provide this free would make society function better.

We don’t need unwanted and unintended pregnancies to burden society and women. 
Scott Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:55 pm
Matt#31, I won’t argue the contraceptive issue with you, but abortion is always the wrong choice for birth control.  
Tracey Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 1:59 pm
Scott#32, Abortion may always be the wrong choice for you, but do not presume to make decisions for me or other women. Especially since abortion isn’t something you could do, anyway. My advice to you would be NOT to have one.

Leave those decisions to the sex that can have one.
Bertha Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 2:01 pm
RL#30, You really want to start that here?  Get up and tell Big Pharma that you and all the other men don’t care about side effects, start selling the male Pill now!

Bertha#34, Oh Come On…Let us allow them to adopt Thomas England’s position from GA. You know, let nature take it’s natural course as is done with pigs and cows (I don’t know his farm he was raised on.) Because afterall, unless you are considered a stud, you are castrated and raised to be food.

And as Thomas England is no stud, I have seen no evidence or admission that he has been castrated, or that he is seeking USDA acceptance. Even Thomas Akin at threat of castration would have to admit, that rape can occur without equipment–because it is not about procreation. 
PK Says:
December 20th, 2013 at 2:42 pm
