Delaware protects 'abortion rights' in new law

Delaware Gov. John Carney Jr. signed an abortion rights bill into law Thursday to prepare for restrictions on the practice that may come from the Supreme Court or the Trump administration.

The bill makes the provisions of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court decision that declared abortion legal, codified into state law.

"This new law is important because it says to women that you are important, that you have the ability to decide when to have a child, and the state supports you in making the decision that is best for you and your family," Elizabeth Nash, an analyst at the Guttmacher Institute, which tracks abortion policy, told Reuters.

This law makes it abundantly clear that women do not have to take responsibility for their actions. If you are not ready to have a child, then abstain!

There's only one place (except a petri dish) that the egg meets the sperm, and there's only one way the sperm gets there.
