Cant laws just place to no late terms abortions except for medical reasons be a thing?

You'd think so, but Republicans have decided on state after state that there can't be exceptions. Not for rape or incest or sometimes even the health of the mother.

And in at least one case in Texas, they're forcing a woman to carry a fetus to term even though it will live a short and agonizing life before going through a prolonged and agonizing death.

So, sure, we could have laws that say only doctor-approved abortions are the only late-term abortions available, but Republicans have constantly demonstrated their desire for bans was never about protecting a woman, the fetus, or either of their health.
