This defense is questionable. Feminists For Choice argues, "In reviewing the actual text of the law, the first 8 questions that will be asked and reported could easily be used to identify any member of a smaller community."

The Center For Reproductive Rights, former state Rep. Wanda Jo Stapleton (D-Okla.), and Okla. resident Lora Joyce David have filed a lawsuit to prevent this contentious abortion bill from going into effect, on the grounds that it violates the state's constitution.

The legislature is hoping that by embarrassing these women they will no longer seek abortion, at least not in Oklahoma. It’s clearly a workaround to violate Roe v Wade and they don’t mind spending taxpayer money to pull it off.
