The majority of people in NH feel that our current abortion laws are fine where they are and dont need changing (per the latest YouGov survey on the topic). Governor Ayotte and NH Republicans made campaign promises that they wouldn't put further restrictions in place, Ayotte even addressed this in her inagural speech. And last year, the NH House proposed a 15-week abortion ban that was withdrawn because of how many people opposed it. 20 to 24 weeks is when you get anatomy scan ultrasounds where you can find out very serious defects that can make your babys quality of life extremely short, painful, or that they will be incompatible with life at all. So these people who are excited to be parents now get terrible results and have to make really hard decisions that they don’t want to make. I personally don't believe NH should make things harder for people where if they get a scan at 21 or 22 weeks now they have to worry about travel and finding a doctor, on top of everything else.
