[Fwd: Fwd: Re: Sarah Jessica Parker pressed into service]

States can have "fully informed" laws which essentially require women to be
subjected to anti-abortion literature before they cna have an abortion.  And
Casey also said that states can outlaw abortion post-"viability," which is
about as vague a standard as I could possibly imagine.  Plus, parental consent
laws and waiting periods.  There are probably more, but that's what's coming
to my mind offhand.
