Abstract

Lawmakers in three states have already passed laws allowing private citizens to sue abortion aids in an abortion; other proposed bills target the pregnant woman herself. Perhaps most worrisome to abortion rights advocates is the trend among pregnancy centers to reach out to women who have already had abortions, often by offering post abortion "counseling." Texas' six-week abortion ban offers a $10,000 reward to anyone who wins a civil case against either an abortion provider or someone who aided in an abortion. Last year, Arkansas passed a law requiring women seeking an abortion to call an abortion- alternatives hotline, which in many cases would direct them to a pregnancy center.
