[quote=Anonymous][quote]There is also precedent for a state to "punish a crime committed by its citizens in another state, so long as the conduct is criminal in both states," said Gabriel (Jack) Chin, a law professor at the University of California-Davis. If abortion was legal in the second state, [b]the state passing the out-of-state abortion restriction might be on safer legal ground if it could demonstrate some form of harm to the state, he added.[/b] "State A could argue that, unlike traveling to engage in gambling or smoking marijuana, [b]an abortion has continuing effects in State A, namely, the death of a citizen or future citizen of the state[/b]," Chin said.[/quote] https://www.politifact.com/article/2022/jun/29/can-states-punish-women-traveling-get-abortion[/quote]
