[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At some point you have to realize how much this will affect the economy of these states. Moral objections aside. Practically speaking. Can you hold a conference or event in TX if pregnant women in your organization or group feel they cannot attend because they could not get appropriate, life saving medical care in an emergency?  I’m past child bearing years. But if I were pregnant looking at this, I wouldn’t travel to TX or Ohio if pregnant. What if I had a miscarriage or a placental abruption or my membranes break on the trip? I couldn’t go to the hospital and get the nationally accepted standard of care. Holding the event there would be pregnancy/sex discrimination.

Remember NC and the transgender bathroom bill?  That’s where we are headed with red states that don’t adequately  protect the health and life of the mother. No conventions, meetings etc that could include women of childbearing age.  When my organization plans it’s next major meeting, I will be very vocal about it being somewhere where our pregnant employees can get adequate healthcare in a medical emergency. [/quote]
+1 I would not want anyone dear to me who is pregnant to be in these states, as a resident or visitor.   What if they miscarry?  I know so many friends/family members who have miscarried and needed a D&C.    Thankfully, they all live in blue states.

If I were pregnant,  I would not want to be in those states. I can't imagine a husband who loves his wife would want them there, either.[/quote]

Affluent women will want to deliver elsewhere.  The top quality care is not going to be in red states.[/quote]
