MY TURN: Vote yes on November Prop 1 initiative
This Nov. 3, Idaho voters will vote on Proposition 1, the initiative to roll back Idaho’s ban on maternal pregnancy care. Voting yes on this initiative is about trusting women. It’s all about believing that women can and will make sound decisions using their hearts, brains, beliefs, values and circumstances. It’s giving grace to women and their partners/families/doctors while they navigate this precious — and sometimes complicated — decision to bring or not bring a child into the world.
Being pregnant is a woman’s domain. She alone will experience the hormonal changes, complications, pain and pure pleasure of giving birth. Sometimes, birth is not the end result. There are issues with ectopic pregnancies, fetal genetic abnormalities, births by Caesarian, miscarriages, and private personal circumstances that come into play in family planning. Every woman’s circumstances are so very different during her reproductive years.
