Arizona Republicans pass bill asking women "WHY ARE YOU SEEKING AN ABORTION?"

Arizona House Passes Bill Requiring Women Seeking Abortions To Say Why
“It’s none of the government’s business why a woman is getting an abortion,” said state Rep. Athena Salman (D).


SNIP
The Arizona state House of Representatives passed a bill that would require women seeking abortions to fill out an invasive questionnaire that asks the reason for the procedure.

The legislation, passed on Monday, would force women to answer questions, including whether the abortion is elective for economic reasons, if the pregnancy was from a rape or incest, if the woman does not want children at this time, if the abortion is due to fetal or maternal health, and if the patient is having “relationship issues” such as domestic abuse or an extramarital affair.



SNIP
The bill does not require women to disclose their identity on the questionnaire, but they would have to provide their race, ethnicity, age, educational background, marital status and the number of prior pregnancies and prior abortions.

scrawl "NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS" across the form and hand it in that way?

I swear, Republicans are so obsessed with women's personal parts! It borders on perversion!

"Why are you taking Viagra or condoms into the men's room?"

"Where did you get them?"
"Why do you use them"?
