No one is telling women they cannot have an abortion (though I personally believe it to be murder), all that is being said is that you and me should not have to pay for Sally's abortion. The congress woman's argument you quoted is full of holes, not the least of which is that a very very tiny percentage of abortions have anything to do with the mother's health (one does wonder though, using the congresswoman's example, how a woman whose heart is too weak to give birth managed to have sex without dying), and if the mother doesn't have the money to raise a child there are literally thousands of young couples who cannot conceive and would love to adopt her baby and pay all her expenses leading up to and including the delivery and post-natal care.
