Sellel nädalal võttis Alabama osariik vastu äärmiselt karmi abordiseaduse, mille kohaselt selle protseduuri läbi teinud naine võib 99-aastaks vangi minna. See aga ei meeldi kuidagi Ameerika avaliku elu tegelastele, kes on selle vastu protestima hakanud.
Kuulsused protestivad eelnõu vastu, mille kohaselt ei tohi ka pärast vägistamist aborti teha
Naise keha ja tuleviku üle otsustav eelnõu ei meeldi kuulsustele nagu Rihanna ja Mia Farrow, kes postitasid sotsiaalmeediasse kõikide senatiliikmete pildid, kes eelnõu poolt hääletasid.
Eelnõu kohaselt, mis näeb ette aborti ükskõik, mis raseduse järgus, saavad kõik naised maksimaalselt 99-aastase ehk eluaegse vanglakaristuse. Sarnane karistus ootab ka ees arste, kes protseduuri läbi viivad.
Ainus erand kehtib kordadele, mil abordi tegemine võib päästa naise elu, kirjutas Fox News. See tähendab, et ka verepilastuse ja vägistamise järel ei tohi naine aborti teha.
Seaduse vastu on üles astunud ka sarjast «Cougar Town» üles astunud Busy Phillips, kes 15-aastaselt oli sunnitud ise aborti tegema.
Vastumeelsust väljendasid ka lauljad Lady Gaga ja Barbra Streisand, näitleja Jameela Jamil, laulja John Legend, näitleja Chris Evans ja paljud-paljud teised.

Yes, the news out of Alabama tonight is HORRIFYING. Rapists are facing less jail time than a doctor who performs an abortion on a rape victim. See below for where you can donate to help fight and hopefully reverse this sheer evil. https://t.co/wxjC2VVUcv

There have been nearly 30 bans on abortion introduced, passed, or signed into law in statehouses around the country this year alone.

This is Trump’s anti-choice agenda and part of the GOP’s war on women.

Good grief. Women should have the same autonomy over our bodies that men do. If we don’t have autonomy we don’t have equal rights.

Do what the Alabama government refuses to do: help women by donating to the https://t.co/VxouPOI5gt. Donating is as easy as flicking an embryo out of a uterus should be.

BUSY PHILLIPS
1 in 4 women have had an abortion. Many people think they don't know someone who has, but #youknowme. So let's do this: if you are also the 1 in 4, let's share it and start to end the shame. Use #youknowme and share your truth.

CHELSEA HANDLER
Of those 25 men who voted to ban abortion in Alabama, I’d like to know how many of them have ever been pregnant. Or have gotten pregnant as a result of rape. I’d like to know how many of those men know exactly what it is like to be a woman. The answer is zero.
