Headline: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 5/30/2023
Sen. Romaine Quinn of Cameron and Reps. Gae Magnafici of Dresser and Donna Rozar of Marshfield in a memo to colleagues seeking support said the measure is needed because "pro-abortion groups have sowed doubt regarding whether current laws offer adequate protection to medical professionals who must perform a life-saving intervention on a pregnant woman."
Well, gang, the GOP has purposely made the language regarding exception confusing.

But in the months since the court’s decision, very few exceptions to these new abortion bans have been granted, a New York Times review of available state data and interviews with dozens of physicians, advocates and lawmakers revealed.
Instead, those with means are traveling to states where abortion is still broadly legal or are obtaining abortion pills at home because the requirements to qualify for exceptions are too steep. Doctors and hospitals are turning away patients, saying that ambiguous laws and the threat of criminal penalties make them unwilling to test the rules.
“Having the legal right on the books to get an abortion and getting one in practice are two distinctly different things,” said Laurie Bertram Roberts, the executive director of the Mississippi Reproductive Freedom Fund, a group that supports abortion rights.
