Would just add that Republican lawmakers are trying to ban you doing this:

For example, Idaho became the first state to outlaw “abortion trafficking,” which it defined as “recruiting, harboring or transporting” a pregnant minor to get an abortion or abortion medication without parental permission. Which is obviously a problem if your parent raped you.

You're being downvoted but this is correct. The entire concept of "state's rights" was always a facade when it comes to abortions. The end-goal is restricting choice as much as possible, and in every way you can. Virtually no republican's support people travelling to blue states for abortions due to this. The issue of abortion has been rife with dishonesty for as long as it's existed.
