"Legal experts say corporations offering to pay abortion expenses will face a patchwork of state laws that could leave them exposed to lawsuits and even potential criminal liability from states who may claim that abortion-related payments violate that state's ban on facilitating or aiding and abetting abortions," Webster said.
With trigger laws and new state legislation complicating the decision for corporations to provide financial support for abortion-related costs, companies now have to navigate restrictions and risk legal action in order to provide these services.

Legal clashes await U.S. companies covering workers' abortion costsA growing number of large U.S. companies have said they will cover travel costs for employees who must leave their home states to get abortions, but these new policies could expose businesses to lawsuits and even potential criminal liability, legal experts said. Do you mean accusations of incitement to murder, human trafficking, torture and money laundering, I don't think as long as there is a force against the prosperity of the United States protecting them. Remember Dirty Dancing? The movie? The story? It definitely removes the privacy aspect of the procedure. I'm appalled at the ignorance of these people. This was fought the right way for 50 yrs, one might think they ignored it? Shame the media hid it from women deliberately, the Life March increases every year.

Legal clashes await U.S. companies covering workers' abortion costsAmazon.com Inc, Apple Inc, Lyft Inc, Microsoft Corp and JPMorgan Chase & Co were among companies that announced plans to provide those benefits through their health insurance plans in anticipation of Friday's U.S. Supreme Court decision overturning the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that had legalized abortion nationwide. Within an hour of the decision being released, Conde Nast chief executive Roger Lynch sent a memo to staff announcing a travel reimbursement policy and calling the court's ruling 'a crushing blow to reproductive rights.' Walt Disney Co unveiled a similar policy on Friday, telling employees that it recognizes the impact of the abortion ruling but remains committed to providing comprehensive access to quality healthcare, according to a spokesman. How about not doing business in any state in which an employee would have to beg their boss for help with an unwanted pregnancy ? Wouldn't be easier if the companies gave free contraceptives?
