Overturning Roe means it goes back to the states. Does Anyone really believe NY state is going to EVER outlaw baby killing?

Yes, but incrementally.
- Restrictions on weeks of gestation (age of baby.)
- Ban abortions based on developed capacity of baby (heartbeat, brain waves).
- Strict limits on who can perform abortions, only MD's (no OPs, PAs, NPs, CNMs, etc.)
- Restrictions on age of mother (minors must get both parental and partner consent.)
- Married women living with spouse must get spousal consent.
- Mandatory county, state and federal reporting requirements including detailed demographics and wellness follow-up on each patient.
- Ban public funding or any kind to any organization that provides abortions (a biggie.)
- Restrictions on private insurance coverage (make it easy for most people to opt for plans that do NOT offer elective abortion.)
- Restrictions on doctors who can do them (e.g. must have admitting privileges at a hospital 25 minutes away or less.)
- Ban specific abortion methods (e.g. no D&E, D&X, Partial-birth, Saline, etc.)
- Restrictions on abortion pills --- this is becoming increasingly important.
- Doctors and nurses must provide full information that a medical (pill) abortion can be reversed within 24-48 hours if the second pill (Cytotec) has not yet been taken.
- Ban abortion advertising.
- Restrict crossing state lines to get abortion.
- Ban collecting, selling, offering, distributing baby cells, tissues or body parts for any reason (research, etc.)
- Abortion-seeking women must meet at least once (via Video? Skype? Anonymous interview?) with adoption-seeking couples.
- Detailed informed consent, comparable to what they have to give you for a gastric bypass (including sonogram viewed by pregnant mom.)
- Failure to offer complete informed consent makes the abortionist liable for damages, or even better, prosecutable for homicide.
- Robust public support for alternatives (e.g. adoption.)
- Public support for family-formation (marriage of unmarried partners); link all public benefits to marriage.
- Middle school and high school health classes should teach that abortion kills a child after his life has begun. (Planned Parenthood literature stated that before Roe vs Wade!!)
- Zoning restrictions for free-standing clinics.
- Requirement that clinics meet all standards for ambulatory surgery centers.
- Tax, defund, and regulate the abortion profiteers out of existence.
There's a lot you can do on many fronts, much of it directly related to patient health & safety and consumer protection, even in severely pro-abort states, even if you can't do it all at once.
