Abortion rights require Solomonic wisdom to reach whatever consensus there could be: perhaps relatively unrestricted (at most brief waiting periods) in the 1st trimester, requiring physician's attestation to serious fetal anomalies which don't usually manifest until the 2nd trimester, only to save the woman's life or traumatic damage to the woman and fetus whether by accident or criminal act by others which severely reduces the odds of live birth or survival to 6 months.

Current US politics militates against anything remotely resembling wisdom or consensus. Absolute license or prohibition are all that's offered: choose one.
