Inside the Debates of a Hospital Abortion Committee

“In states that banned abortion, doctors are forced to wrestle with tough decisions about high-risk pregnancy care,” ProPublica reports.

An awful story from one doctor: “Late last year, he sighed heavily as he counseled the woman whose baby was developing without a skull and gently told her what he tells all of his patients in her position: that he had the training to help her, but because of Tennessee’s laws, he might face prosecution and jail time if he did. He had a baby at home and couldn’t take that risk, he explained. Instead he would refer her to options outside the state.”
