The Daily Delegate

Lowering Cost of Abortion

The media team from committee 6 is in favor of this bill because lowering the cost of abortions is a crucial step in ensuring that reproductive healthcare is accessible to all individuals, regardless of their situation. This bill will reduce costs of abortion by implementing insurance coverage, donations, and expanded public health care programs. High costs can create significant barriers, especially for low-income families. We can help prevent unwanted pregnancies from becoming financial burdens that could ruin a person’s life. We will enforce this by fining 5% recorded income for the last fiscal year from the abortion clinic that doesn’t comply. Access to abortions allow people to make choices about their bodies and futures without the added stress of taking care of another individual. Ultimately, this bill ensures that all individuals have the freedom to make decisions that are best for their health, without financial burden.
