Low level bureaucrat here. Since this inhumane verdict came down, after the shock wore off, it occurred to me that there is a HUGE difference between signing a piece of paper with smug flourish (passing a law) and implementing that law (creating policy). Enforcing these medieval bans will require complex relationships between Health and Human Services agencies, state and local governments, armies of bureaucrats working with (in many cases hostile) medical and legal frameworks, to say nothing of the sand that the Feds can kick in the gears of these ridiculous schemes. They can close clinics, and that’s a tragedy, but these laws, in many instances, may be unenforceable via policy prescriptions. Add the fact that most of these forced birth states despise the Administrative State and, welp - my guess is that banning abortion is not going to be as easy as they’re assuming. Trying to be positive here
