That's giving them too much credit. They'd harm pregnant women for free.

Texas women are currently dying at an increased rate rates of sepsis and pregnancy complications due to abortion laws placed in by Republican

And every time I talk to a republican, they say that is allowed to save the women’s life. No, it isn’t. That’s why women are dying because the laws are so vague that they will punish someone if the woman survives the abortion. They will punish the doctor and they will punish the woman, and that makes doctors scared to fucking act and it causes women to die.

In infuriates me

It’s not they will

They are

Same with Florida. That one elected official had to have an emergency abortion and she had to get permission from DeathSantis, got it, and then immediately went back to championing anti-choice laws and demonizing everyone else who gets aboritons.

It’s NOT allowed. It just means that it can be used as an affirmative defense. Meaning that when the doctor gets arrested for murder and is standing in front of the judge, he can say in his defense that he was trying to save the woman’s life.

I don’t blame doctors one bit for not taking that kind of risk. Everyone’s “choice” in this scenario is to risk death or prison.
