Approximately half of all pregnancies terminate in spontaneous abortion (miscarriage). A women's physical body rejects the fetus for a variety of reasons.

Humans' prodigious cognitive abilities separate us from other animals. Our ability to make choices based upon reason have made possible our species' current domination of the planet.

Laws that deny women access to safe and legal therapeutic abortion prevent her from making a decision that her body routinely makes. Restricting reproductive choice has the effect of reducing women's status to that of domestic animals.
