[b]After 15 weeks - rape/incest/life of mother or fetus[/b]
Dr. is given broad discretion to use best medical practices.

I’m hard core pro-choice and could live with this
But this country has a long way to go to get abortion access to women everywhere. Later abortions are happening because of all the roadblocks republicans have erected.

I’d also like to see verbiage for free birth control and better sex education. I had excellent sex education growing up and I think it really made a difference. [/quote]

Question (for anybody who supports such restrictions): how would any of this be applied, as a practical matter?  How do you prove rape/incest (considering many aren't reported and if they are, do not result in a conviction and if they do, it takes longer than 9 months)?  And if you don't have to prove it, isn't the restriction meaningless?  Also, what does "life of the mother" mean considering that some degree of risk is inherent in every pregnancy? [/quote]
