30. Are they going to state what punishment they plan to mete out to women

who have abortions?

A ban has to be enforced. How would they do that?

That's the rub.

What they really want is "education" about pregnancy and abortions for women, and Obama's ACA is the best guarantee that will happen.

Ask them how they plan to enforce this ban on abortion?
