The Spin
Left narrative
It's appalling that Idaho would look at the harm inflicted in Texas and attempt to duplicate it. This is a travesty that not only infringes on women's rights, but also disproportionately affects underprivilleged groups without the economic means to access abortions elsewhere.
Right narrative
It's the state's responsibility to advocate for the rights of unborn babies.This bill is a step in the right direction and will prevent the wanton destruction of human life.
