I'm not sure if you're serious or just repeating the MSM talking points, but that logic is exactly why I posted the link and quote. None of those trigger laws will punish a mother from getting an abortion if her life is at risk. What they remove is the 95%+ (I don't remember the exact number, I think it's probably higher than that) of abortions which are basically used as a form of late birth control.
Don't believe me? The NYT conveniently provided links to all of those trigger laws back in May, so you can see for youself. For example, South Dakota (which is arguably the most restrictive of them)
Any person who administers to any pregnant female or who prescribes or procures for any pregnant female any medicine, drug, or substance or uses or employs any instrument or other means with intent thereby to procure an abortion, unless there is appropriate and reasonable medical judgment that performance of an abortion is necessary to preserve the life of the pregnant female, is guilty of a Class 6 felony.
I am serious and not 'repeating msm talking points'.
Honestly, terminating because of medical complications strikes me as an almost entirely separate issue, and most people or politicians seem to agree, because I have not heard of much push to stop that practice.
For the overwhelming majority of people, the abortion debate is a contraception debate centering on whether a woman has the right to terminate a pregnancy on a whim.
Wrong. Trigger laws in 8 states made abortion illegal the instant the supreme court ruling was delivered.
