Should public funding of abortion clinics be an issue up for vote?

Should the father have a say in the "choice"?

Yes, and no. It depends on the law. Alabama, for instance, is an abortion ban (with a vague statement about allowing it if the mother is in "serious" danger, without defining serious). I'm mostly pro life, but this is why it ends up being a federal issue: because states take it too far.

Yes, and no. It depends on the funding. Some legislation proposed would have banned funding for abortions even when medically necessary. Or, the case could be made for a child who suffers a sexual assault and is a ward of the state as the perpetrator was her only legal guardian. That (to me) isn't the same as funding somebody's abortion because they're too lazy to buy birth control. And, unfortunately, there are too many folks who obscure the difference.

Yes, and no. Consensual, yes. Victims of nonconsensual, no.
