    Mexico's Supreme Court upholds abortion rights nationwide, paving way
    for federal access

    Mexico's Supreme Court on Wednesday struck down a federal law
    criminalizing abortion, reaffirming an earlier ruling that criminal
    penalties for abortion were unconstitutional and allowing the federal healthcare system to provide services.

    IIRC, Texas has a new law forbidding someone getting an abortion, and
    against a person who transports them into another state.

    I haven't crossed Texas border to Mexico in awhile, but then only
    Mexican side looked at your paperwork. US side was federal, so I
    wonder if Texas is going to inspect all females wanting to go to
    Mexico?

    Make your return flight into a decent state like Illinois, not a
    Taliban failed-state like Alabama/Texas/Florida.

    If they want to give all females pregnancy tests during the TSA exam,
    they can just fuck the fuck right off.

    If I were a woman in Alabama I'd move the fuck right out, and let
    Alabaman men go back to rooting each other behind the barn.

    One wonders if the same rich guys pushing anti-abortion litigation in
    the US paid off Mexican lawmakers to make abortion illegal. They've got
    to take their daughters and mistresses somewhere, don't they?

    In 1931, fourteen years after the writing of the national
    Constitution, the Mexican Government addressed abortion by making it
    illegal, except in the cases when the abortion is caused by the
    negligence of the mother, continuation of the pregnancy endangers the
    life of the mother, or in pregnancy resulting from rape.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_Mexico

    Catholic church, I suspect, had a hand in making abortion illegal.

    Do note the exceptions....and compare to some US states.
