25 years in prison for telling pregnant people abortion services exist. 25 years in prison for referrals. 25 years in prison for not actively censoring abortion information from other states.
This is what the @GOP are doing RIGHT NOW, in South Carolina.
Not what they want. What they ARE DOING.
They will make us ALL illegal if they can.
Here's the fascist bill the fascist @GOP have introduced in South Carolina.
Section 44-41-860.
(A) It is unlawful to knowingly or intentionally aid, abet, or conspire with another person to violate the provisions contained in Section 44-41-830.
A person who violates this section is guilty of a felony and is subject to the same penalties as provided in Section 44-41-830.
(B) The prohibition against aiding and abetting a violation of Section 44-41-830 includes, but is not limited to knowingly and intentionally:
(1) providing information to a pregnant woman, or someone seeking information on behalf of a pregnant woman, by telephone, internet, or any other mode of communication regarding self-administered abortions or the means to obtain an abortion, knowing that the information will be used, or is reasonably likely to be used, for an abortion;
(2) hosting or maintaining an internet website, providing access to an internet website, or providing an internet service purposefully directed to a pregnant woman who is a resident of this State that provides information on how to obtain an abortion, knowing that the information will be used, or is reasonably likely to be used for an abortion;
(3) offering or providing abortion doula services, knowing that the services will be used, or are reasonably likely to be used for an abortion;
(4) providing a referral to an abortion provider, knowing that the referral will result, or is reasonably likely to result, in an abortion; and
(5) providing a referral to an abortion provider and receiving monetary remuneration, or other compensation, from an abortion provider for the referral.
25 years in prison for hosting a website talking about legal abortion in your own state.
That's what the @GOP are doing.
That's what they WILL take national if they get power.
Every word about "free speech" from them is a LIE. A filthy, KNOWING LIE.
Never forget that.
For completeness, the new Section 830:
Section 44-41-830. (A) It is unlawful to knowingly or intentionally perform or induce an abortion. A person who violates this section is guilty of a felony and, upon conviction, must be imprisoned for not more than twenty-five years if the unborn child dies as a result of the violation. A person who violates this section is guilty of a felony and, upon conviction, must be imprisoned for not more than twenty years if the unborn child is born alive despite the violation.
