Abstract:
Elected prosecutors have pledged not to enforce abortion laws, in response to state-level abortion bans. For their pledges to be meaningful, prosecutors must exercise their discretion in cases of individuals who face legal risk, including people who help others self-manage their abortions. With a harm-reduction approach to improving abortion access, prosecutors should aim to reduce abortion helpers\' involvement with the criminal justice system.
摘要:
当选的检察官已承诺不执行堕胎法,响应州级堕胎禁令.为了使他们的承诺有意义,检察官必须在面临法律风险的个人案件中行使自由裁量权,包括帮助他人自我管理堕胎的人。通过减少伤害的方法来改善堕胎机会,检察官应该致力于减少堕胎助手对刑事司法系统的参与。
