If you are a woman of childbearing age and are, or even plan to be pregnant, run as fast as you can away from these states.
There was a time, not long ago, when birthing children was potentially dangerous or even fatal without modern medical care. By outlawing that care, you’re taking a hard dive right back into those medieval conditions. Woman can, will, and are dying because of these laws. It’s horribly, horribly, horribly wrong, and I hope it gets reversed soon.
But until then? Run.
What, you’d take a personal check from that guy?
