I hate to say it, but many attempts have been made by various state legislatures over the years at introducing laws to require just what you advocate, informed choice. Unfortunately, in the spirit of Roe vs. Wade, every one of these laws have been struck down by the Supreme Court as being "unconstitutional." Without overturning Roe vs. Wade, true informed consent laws may be impossible.
Personally, I am not at all for making abortion illegal. I am for full informed consent, mandatory pre-abortion sonograms, and for showing the post-abortive mothers their "products of conception." Such measures would, I believe, cause a drastic drop in the number of birth-control abortions.

Do you you know on what basis these informed consent laws were struck down and what courts were involved? I would like to read the decisions and understand how they fabricated the unconstitutional basis.
