Allow women to travel to other states to receive abortion care

Opposing arguments

Legal and safe abortions can be strictly regulated to prevent abuses such as sex selection and eugenics, rather than banning abortion altogether.
Issues like sex selection and eugenics are separate from the fundamental right to abortion and should be addressed through specific policies and education.

Supported voting positions

Ban abortion completely

Supporting arguments

If people start using abortion to eliminate fetuses with disabilities or undesirable traits, such traits will become rarer and more discriminated against.
There are cases of abortion running out of control and leading to massive discrimination against female fetuses.
