Outrageous.

Abortions are now allowed in New York at ANY point of the pregnancy "... when necessary to protect a woman’s life or health".

In case this sounds reasonable to you, understand that it was ALREADY legal to abort a fetus at any point if the mother's life was in danger.

This change in law allows the abortion not just if the mother's life is in danger, but also if the pregnancy is having an impact on her "health".

Unfortunately, the term "health" is extremely broad, and will allow doctors to abuse it, where claims of mental or emotional health issues will be enough to justify a very late term abortion, which is basically the equivalent to murder, especially if that child is old enough to survive outside of the womb.

In addition, the state already allows abortions up to the 24th week, which honestly is pretty insane. Some babies born at the 24 week mark have gone on to survive and live normal lives. You're not just aborting a few cells at that point. For reference, babies born at the 26 week mark have an 80% survival rate, and those at the 27 week mark have a 90% survival rate.

I just don't understand how the left advocates shit like this, but they are screaming about the sanctity of human life when a mass murderer is given the death penalty.
