Montana introduces ‘abortion trafficking’ bill to prosecute residents who receive abortion care in other states

Montana has introduced House Bill 609, which will prosecute residents who travel to other states to receive abortion care.

It’s well-known that the most extreme Republicans support prosecuting women who travel to other states for an abortion. Such a measure shouldn’t be possible, though. When Roe vs. Wade was overturned, Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote that states couldn’t prosecute women for traveling to other states for abortion because it would infringe on their constitutional right to interstate travel. Even so, Republicans, from the onset, showed interest in challenging this right. They quickly blocked a Senate bill that would’ve solidified protections for women who travel for abortion care and have pushed for “abortion trafficking” laws that apply to minors. Of course, they were never interested in stopping at minors. The real goal was to challenge women’s right to travel eventually, and now, Montana is trying to do just that.
