Recommended: The political role of women during the twentieth century

The topic of abortion has long been a controversial issue. An abortion is a medical procedure that is used to terminate a pregnancy and cause death to the embryo.
Both presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump take on different sides on this sensitive issue. Donald Trump is pro life he is against the practice of abortion. Hillary Clinton on the other hand, is pro choice she supports that women should have a right to a safe legal abortion. While abortion may affect a woman physically and mentally it can also, affect the family and community depending on how one looks at it. Presidential candidate Hillary has very strong view on abortion. According, to her website she strongly believes in protecting women’s health and reproductive …show more content…

According to a Huffington post article titled “Donald Trump Promises To Appoint Anti-Abortion Justices To Supreme Court” Donald trump states the best way to ban abortion is to vote for him. Furthermore, he states if he became president he would appoint Supreme Court justices who would more than likely overturn Roe vs. Wade. Additionally, Trump stated,” Women should face some sort of punishment for having an abortion”. In a Life News article it states that Trump promised to de-fund planned parent hood. He also, opposes taxpayers funding contraception and abortions.
I stand with Hillary on this particular issue. All women should have the option to decide what is best for them. It is 2016 and women’s rights should not be under attacked.
Women should have control over her reproductive rights. We would be taking a step back if we got rid of Roe vs. Wade. Additionally, having taxpayers fund contraceptives and abortions can be a positive thing for all women especially women in poverty. Not all women have the financial outlet to pay for contraceptives and abortion. Without access to basic reproductive rights for women we could be taken back to a dark time again of illegal

From 1848 to 1920, an outrageous span of 70 years, women fought for equal rights, to have their voices and opinions heard. Little by little women have gained rights they have so passionately fought for. In 1973, about 50 years after women became eligible to vote, and began to be taken more seriously, the case of Roe v Wade granted women to have one of the most impactful rights to date, to terminate an unwanted pregnancy. Now, it is safe to say that all women and perhaps most men would not want women to lose the rights they have today, especially because there have been many influential women around the world who have been given the chance to be impactful because of the rights they possess. So, if we do not want to take away women’s rights and

Until now, abortion is still legal in Canada as a symbol of freedom, liberty and respect for women. And the new Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau has stated his and the liberty party's standpoint of abortion：Government of Canada will stand on the side of women's personal willingness, which is Pro-Choice. But it is also reasonable for some opponents to stand on the side of the unborn, to think of their rights of living. Pro-choice or pro-life, what

Lastly, the number of abortions would go up if Planned Parenthood were to be defunded. Planned Parenthood offers more than just abortions, whilst they are a very small part of what Planned Parenthood offers. 42% of what they offer is STI/STD testing and treatment, 34% is contraception, an 11% is other women’s health services, 9% being cancer screening and prevention, then abortion at a small 3% of what they offer, while 1% is other services.

Women who are victims of rape will always be in remembrance of their terrifying experience, which sometimes result in neglect and unfair treatment of the child due to the woman’s rape trauma syndrome. Women who are not financially stable that are pregnant and oppose abortion live in poverty. If abortions were banned it would increase illegal abortions which have critical effect to the woman’s health. Statistics estimate that the risk of death from an abortion is 0.6 in 100,000. The risk of death childbirth is 14 times higher, 8.8 in 100,000.

I also believe that through family planning, women’s health approves and so does the status of women in the community. Their health and status approves since women have access to Planned Parenthood where they are empowered to make educated decisions about sexual and reproductive health. Planned Parenthood clinics serve a majority of women receiving publicly funded contraceptive services and no longer having these clinics would play key roles in many women’s lives. By defunding Planned Parenthood, women will have to find new places to get contraceptives but they may not find a place they can afford and, in turn, don’t feel the need to continue using contraceptives. By not practicing safe sex, women are in danger

Representative Jason Chaffetz of Utah opened the hearing by enlightening everybody about how 1,500 people die everyday in the U.S. from cancer, implying that women are using up the money available for cancer research on their birth control pills. Another republican suggested that Planned Parenthood’s money would be better spent at the Boys and Girls club. The majority of Planned Parenthood’s funding is from Medicaid. These republicans could not explain how the Boys and Girls club could help women who need, say, a Pap Smear. In a recent Rolling Stone article, Amanda Marcotte explained that, like the argument about mammograms, they were implying that women shouldn't use Planned Parenthood’s “slutty health care” in the first place.

Donald Trump believes, “‘banning all federal taxpayer funding of abortions will save the lives of over one million Americans from abortions’”(Steven). This statement is false and inaccurate. Instead of those women going and getting an abortion safely carried out at Planned Parenthood, she will go get an abortion in a more dangerous way ultimately putting her life at risk too, which will lead to higher deaths. As Taylor Jacobs said in the article on the Odyssey online, “ Regardless of your personal opinions regarding abortions, it is not possible to stop every woman from getting the procedure if they are unprepared to have a child, no matter what programs are defunded. Thousands of women die from unsafe abortions per year and defunding Planned Parenthood would make getting an abortion even more difficult and likely increase the numbers of deaths.”

As a matter of fact, Bernie Sanders in an interview on ABC, was asked if there were “any restrictions” on abortions, and Sanders replied that, “the decision “ultimately” has got to be made by the woman.” Another quote that he states is “we are not returning to the days of backroom abortions, when countless women died or were maimed. The decision about abortion

They believe that the Planned Parenthood clinic is immoral and has even been called a “scandal-plagued organization” by Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA), because of their “lack of compassion towards women and unborn children.” Congress claims that there will be no reduction to the funding of women’s health, only that it will go to a clinic that does not provide abortion services. The problem with this new plan is that many low-income women rely on Planned Parenthood for most of their healthcare services, and defunding the clinic would leave these women with no service. Although Republican congressmen claim that there are 9,000 other clinics around the country that provide women’s healthcare without providing abortions, they are still diminishing the amount of services that women have around the country. Not to mention that abortion is a basic and essential health need for women all around the world.

As a woman, I believe that my rights should not be determined by some man in Washington DC. Instead, everyone should be entitled to their own opinion. Abortions and contraceptives are not procedures or medications that women usually advertise and frankly, it is none of government’s business what women choose to do with their own bodies. They are not the property of men or the

On top of that, his new rules undermine Obama Care. Trump is taking away the right of millions of young women. Though people are entitled to their own opinions, I am a believer in birth control rights. Women have their own choices on their bodies. It benefits them in being able to enjoy their sexual freedoms without having to support a little human being prior to them being prepared to do so.

If we force women to carry the child, it would cause physical and possibly emotional pain. We should allow women to choose what they can do with their bodies. When women can choose when to have their children, their children grow up in a more optimal environment meaning less crime rates and possibly less child abuse rates. Abortion does not only benefit the women, letting her have another option besides caring the child. It benefits the child from possible child abuse as well as society from less criminals and having to spend less money on future welfare
