Georgia's anti-abortion law is really bad
Slate -Georgia Republican Gov. Brian Kemp signed HB 481, the most extreme abortion ban in the country. In addition to criminalizing abortion after about six weeks, the law threatens to imprison women who terminate their pregnancies. It also grants full legal personhood to fetuses, ensuring that anyone who terminates a pregnancy after six weeks—including a pregnant woman herself—may be liable for murder. Women who miscarry may be investigated and charged if prosecutors believe they are responsible for “the death of an unborn child.”
