    Roe v. Wade is a court case that is arguing that abortion should be the woman's choice and also legalized. Roe v. Wade eventually was ruled 7-2 that a right to privacy under the Due Process Clause in the 14th amendment. This allowed women to have an abortion but only before it became fetal viable. Which means that the fetus would be able to survive outside of the womb. Fetal Viability is usually after 20-25 weeks of pregnancy, so women have that time to decide to have an abortion or not.…

    “With the laws in Texas most women in rural areas no longer have access to affordable birth control because most of the clinics lost funding or were shut down by other laws that were aimed at them. Not all of them were Planned Parenthood, but many of them were. As a result the birth rate has gone significantly up in the past year. And with it Medicaid, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program spending for the state has also increased,” she said. “There are only five clinics now in Texas that provide abortions and three of them are in San Antonio, so although I would hope women want to keep their babies, I am angry they potentially have to travel across the state to do so.…

    STUDENT NOTES AND COMMENTS ON THE CASE: I stand by the Court’s decision to uphold Roe v. Wade because I believe that whether a woman chooses to abort her fetus or not should ultimately be left up to her. The State should not have the authority to forbid abortions up until the fetus is able to live outside of the womb, at which point I believe that it is not moral nor should it be legal to abort the fetus. I agree with the decision made in the case of Planned Parenthood v. Casey to uphold the requirements for informed consent and a 24-hour waiting period. In regard to the reporting requirements, I believe that it is important to keep such records for medical, scientific and statistical reasons. Without such records, medical research on abortions…

    Abortion Abortion became a primary issue with the court case Roe v. Wade when a decision was made by the Supreme Court in 1973 regarding the subject. The courts later changed certain parts of their decision with the court case Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey in 1992. The cases fought over the rights to receive an abortion and argued the right to do so through means of the Due Process clause of the 14th amendment and the Right to Privacy implied in previous cases. While some argued that it didn’t follow history or traditions the verdict ended, with a very close vote, with the right to abortion being allowed under specific circumstances.…

    In “The War on Planned Parenthood,” Katrina Heuvel analyzes threats to reproductive health from a Republican-controlled government. Heuvel critiques Congressional leadership for polarizing rhetoric, the numerous committees investigating Planned Parenthood, and the smear campaign against Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards. The organization annually provides cancer screenings, birth control, and STI testing to over 2.7 million Americans (78% of which are low-income), and Heuvel urges readers to fight for reproductive access. The article coherently argues for the preservation of Planned Parenthood, but the use of the Ad Hominem and hasty generalization fallacies undermines the author’s credibility.…

    It is published by an organization whose only agenda is de-funding Planned Parenthood and ending all abortions. The main content is a video that shows several phone calls between a false donor and Planned Parenthood representatives. The donor asks if she can make a donation, and asks if she can make the donation for a specific minority group(blacks). The page has almost no source, and even the one source listed has no sources at all. Even in the video it is obvious the representatives are only trying to do their job.…

    Insiders say President Donald Trump is strongly considering cutting off abortion providers such as Planned Parenthood from Title X funding, a move that has liberals very worried ahead of crucial midterm elections in November, according to Axios. The decision would mean that Planned Parenthood and other abortion clinics would be forced to choose between either losing federal funding or ending all abortion referrals. This would be historic and deliver a historic victory to pro-lifers, and liberals should be very concerned.…

    There is nothing all the more monetarily and economically determinative to a lady than choosing if or when to have kids, a choice to which Planned Parenthood has made an enormous commitment for a huge number of people. Planned Parenthood is the reason social moderates keep on assaulting abortion, as well as contraception in case one is against abortion and contraception, it is not just about abortion. Also, it is the reason Planned Parenthood has turned into a talisman to one side, an image of what they fear most ladies controlling their own, particular regenerative predetermination. 66% of the 1 million premature births in this nation are undertaken by private professionals other than Planned Parenthood, yet there are no mass dissents and…

    Planned Parenthood should remain funded because it provides people with essential disease screening and prevention like breast exams and STD testing, educates youth, gives women access to contraception, and gives women more choices when it comes to unintended or unwanted pregnancies. People against the non-profit like to focus on abortions when discussing Planned Parenthood, but their most used service is disease screening and prevention. In Planned Parenthood’s 2014-2015 annual report, it states that 52% of services that they provide include exams for breast and cervical cancer and STD testing; most popular of which are tests for HPV and HIV (…

    Many people are under the impression that Planned Parenthood is selling fetal tissue for profit (Chris Ostendorf). However, this is a gross misrepresentation of the ideas that Planned Parenthood embodies. Planned Parenthood is often scrutinized because they perform abortions and provide abortion services, when in reality, they are so much more. Providing for men and women, Planned Parenthood is a diverse source of health care. Planned Parenthood was founded October 16, 1916 as a “nonprofit organization that provides reproductive health services in the United States and internationally (Wikipedia).…
