> Fining hospitals that are unsanitary is not attacking your reproductive rights. That would be perfectly acceptable if there were more than one service provider of these services, but in the case of MO - there isn't. There's a single Planned Parenthood clinic for the entire state, and they are being forced to shut down. There used to be plenty, but thanks to other onerous laws their legislature put in place with the aim of making abortion defacto unavailable, those other clinics all had to shut down, leaving the single provider. And now it looks like they'll have none to provide those services, which was their goal all along. How anyone can argue that isn't an attack on reproductive rights is beyond me. If it were such that it was simple for another organization to come in and do what PP did, while abiding by all of those extra laws, it would have happened already. The fact that it didn't, and the fact that PP couldn't do it themselves (it hasn't helped that their federal funding has been basically slashed to nothing for grandstanding reasons that were false to begin with), shows that those laws are working as intended, to make those seeking such care second-class citizens. It essentially makes it impossible for women and men to get proper low-cost reproductive health care in the state. But they can still say "Well, it's all constitutional, so too bad!" as they thumb their nose to everyone else, especially their opposition. Their citizens voted for this, though - I hope they enjoy their face without a nose; it's only going to get worse from here on out for them. All on the backs of disadvantaged women, of course.
