FAILED TO PASS!
Tuesday, November 7th, 2006 Proposition 85:
The Way it is Now: In the state of California it is legal for a minor to
get an abortion without notifying her parents or legal guardian. All aspects of her identity are confidential.
|
The Way it Will be with Prop 85: It will be illegal for a minor to receive
an abortion without their parent or legal guardian being notified forty-eight hours before hand. The only exceptions would
be in the case of an emergency or with a court order.

Arguments Against |

A
procedure is being performed on a minor by an unknown

Abortion
is a proven safe procedure in most cases of minor pregnancy
when done by a trained physician. |
All physicians
at the planned parenthood facility are professionals who
have been well trained and are fully qualified to perform abortions.

|
Allows
for police and parents to be notified if a sexual assault has occurred and a sexual predator
to be apprehended. |
A
young girl looking to keep
confidentiality for any number
of reasons turn to “back yard butchers” to retain their privacy. |
Takes away from a girls right
to privacy, and puts added pressure on the right to chose. |
