    Rachel at Women’s Health News brings our attention to this proposed bill in Tennessee that would target certain pregnant women for drug and alcohol testing.

    (c) The department, in promulgating rules to implement this act, shall consider the following as indications of the necessity for alcohol or drug testing: (1) No prenatal care; (2) Late prenatal care after twenty-four (24) weeks gestation; (3) Incomplete prenatal care; (4) Abruptio placentae; (5) Intrauterine fetal death; (6) Preterm labor of no obvious cause; (7) Intrauterine growth retardation of no obvious cause; (8) Previously known alcohol or drug abuse; or (9) Unexplained congenital anomalies.

    As Rachel explains in comments, the bill’s regulations would target low-income women, "the women who may not have health insurance or time off work or money or transportation to get prenatal care, who are going to have those same barriers to going through drug rehabilitation."

    Of course, tactics like this regarding pregnant women is nothing new. In fact, it’s a trend.

    Aunt B. says it best:

    In other words, the precedent they’re setting is that, once you are pregnant, your body is not your own. You no longer know what’s best for you. Your doctor no longer knows what’s best for you. You are not allowed to not realize you’re pregnant. You’re not allowed to be afraid. You’re not allowed to be too poor to go to the doctor. You have to do what the State tells you to do while you’re pregnant, because, while you’re pregnant, your body is not your own.

      I could see mandating that women who are on welfare must get norplant implanted in order to receive benefits.

      darkstar Reply:

      wrong attitude we cant mandate birthcontrol for anyone. if thats a problem just tell them no more benefits if you have more children we have no right to make them take b.c.

      gnayler Reply:

      this is why we shouldn’t have welfare period, because then you get into these type of moral conundrums, the government’s job shouldn’t be to take care of everyone from cradle to grave, that is the role of the family and individual social networks. In the old days people took care of each other because they knew if they didn’t no one else would, nowadays everyone just thinks oh those poor people can get help from the government.

      Anyway as almost everyone reading probably this knows this is all part of the new world order plan for global depopulation as demonstrated for example by the Georgia Guidestones where it is etched in stone that they must keep the world population at 500,000,000 in “perpetual balance with nature”. I am all about taking care of the environment (global warming is a red herring designed to deflect environmentalists attention from the real problems of genetic pollution caused by recombinant DNA technology and depleted uranium among other REAL environmental disasters) but this is ridiculous every person on the planet could fit in a single county in Florida, we should work on educating people (with locally owned and operated schools!) so that all 6 billion people can take full advantage of their human intellect and improve the human condition on Earth and perhaps in time beyond.

      Man, I hate hearing how “we can fit everyone in a little teacup in Florida or Austrailia…”

      The one thing some of you forgetting is how do we provide the resources? Just because we can fit the population in a condensed area doesn’t mean the Earth can keep providing the resources based on current consumption. That’s just a fact.

      It’s alright to abort and murder unborn infants, i.e., women get the right to kill yet the government won’t give the them the right to handle their pregnancy in their own way. Seems a bit hypocritical, doesn’t it?

      Maybe the government has a few agendas…population control (abortion) and big brother type treatment of poor women who become pregnant? I doubt it though, the government only wants to help these poor and under privileged women.

      Dave,

      Why should anyone have to take any type of drug or medical apparatus in order to receive benefits? Oh yeah, because it’s your tax dollars supporting those people right? Your tax dollars also killed 1 1/2 million women and children in Iraq but I don’t here you bitching about that.

      Anyone who lives in America pays taxes, one way or the other. I see no problem with people getting benefits. It’s the Banks and the corporations that are hurting this country, not the people trying to survive.

      This just corroborates what I’ve been saying about the so-called “sovereignty” movement. If Tennessee – one of the states that has supposedly declared its sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment – is passing laws like THIS, what does that say about their sincerity in declaring “sovereignty?” Hmmm? Pay attention to the blizzard of new laws these states are all passing like there is no tomorrow. They are definitely gearing up for something, and it’s NOT “sovereignty.”

      Add you’re not allowed to decide whether or not to go to the doctor.

      Several years ago reasearchers discovered that ultrasound has a negative effect on IQ, but it’s big business, so you probably missed it. The drugs they give to babies that are in incubators also cause brain damage. The babies of women who skip doctor visits, eat right, and test their water are much better off than those who follow the AMA guidelines. Women birthed pretty well till doctors came into it. Now just about every woman who has more than one baby has had a C-Section.

    9. AliveHidng Says:

      Of course they are testing them! What do you think is going to happen to everybody that gets Universal Health Coverage? Barry Soerto said it himself that each person under government healthcare will go see their doctor once a year. Only then, can they drug test people in the name of healthcare.

      I know…Let the state reps have the babies. Women do have a choice. We can refuse to have children if the state doesn’t like the way we are doing it. There comes a time for smart reps to butt out before they get their butts kicked out of the bedroom.

      Thumbs up gnayler and Robert….. Family, the Church, Morals can “take care ” of each other. So “what” happens to these women who “must” be tested for drugs if they come up positive or refuse to take the drug test….hmmm? Evil scum proposing this bill should be lined up against a wall…. They want to C P S the kids to sell them off to Saudi perverts and lock the mothers away in the rape and torture prisons run by the state. Meanwhile the remaining family and boyfriends will be enrolled in social counceling, re-education and federal rehab programs. Commi Scum.

      Out of everything the NWO has come up with, i think this makes the most sense. Too many f---ing stupid girls that are getting knocked by guys that leave them and live off welfare checks and child support. t in the “poor” community..its getting more common to f--- a guy and have his baby if he stays or not. f--- this s---. Im tired of people living on welfare and government checks. Lets break it down…..

      you have a 19 year old girl who gets knocked up buy a guy and he leaves….then that means she gets welfare checks and child support. After that you have the baby grown up in a bad environment with no father. Then you have a kid thats growing up f---ed up and had problems and has to see counselors and put on medications which all of this together creates one hell of a price tag from only one person with one baby depending on the government. And dont forget crack babies that are being born deformed and born with down syndrom which f---s up their life in the long run. And if a stupid bitch is smoking and doing drugs while pregnant then im sorry she dont deserve to bring life into this world and should go to jail.

      Likewise, if the only way to stop crime is to watch everyone constantly, then you must be for that too – or not for it because that’s something that would bother you personally.

      Drugs and pregnancy always existed but didn’t create the kinds of problems they do now. The drugs weren’t even illegal most of the time. It used to be the family unit that had to step in for an unwed pregnancy, and that probably had a lot to do with where the stigma came from, i.e. families created the social stigma since they didn’t want to wind up in that situation. They would provide the mother with feedback about the strain her actions caused them.

He has no followers; you are listeners, because he’s not leading you anywhere and has no upfront solution to offer.

      He’s not gathering people to solve the problem; he creates an atmosphere of doubt and fear to sell you his products. You are a captive listening audience held together by fear that creates a Need to purchase unneeded crap. At this point anyone who doesn’t see that is just plain gullible.

    22. Tulkyr Says:

      @cut the cord who said “All we have to do is : STOP PAYING TAX. It all Shuts down.. No guns requiered” This is true but its one of those things where you wont get a good amount of ppl to do it at once that its just pointless. Kinda the wackjob who cut the guys head off on a full bus….everyone was waiting for someone else to get up and stop the wackjob…so no one got up. i agree that alex jones and this site play the role of the “shock-jock! now plz buy my random s---” people. and their articles often show how crazy they really are when they quote the Bible and post articles about absolutely nothing important like The First Lady giving the devil sign O f---ING NO!!!

      as for this article…there are a lot of people who are not responsible when pregnant young and poor, young and rich….all can be irresponsible. The one chick who intentionally had 8 children while she already had like 6 others WHILE she was on WELFARE and recently got cosmetic surgery to look like a movie star—she is a good example of a poor irresponsible prego. now granted she is just mentally ill too…her financial situation put more responsibility on her hands because she cannot provide for them….she requires the rest of society to give her money to feed those kids all of which have some sort of severe mental / physical defect.

      If anyone is unable to provide for their kids, they should not be allowed to have kids. BUT BUT BUT we must see that it is not always if ever their fault that they are poor (unless they are like crackheads or mentally ill…not fault on themselves…but not others too…they are the ones who just dont fit in) The gap between the rich and poor grows huge….costs rise while wages for the majority do not. It could come down to where its illegal to have a single kid if you are poor…but if its the BS greed of the rich elites that causes your financial situation you do deserve to have kids but i would not cause i want to be able to provide for them. Now if you lost all your money to gambling you do not deserve s---…f---ing retard.

      but u see the pickle we are in? gotta look at all the reasonings. its not as simple as “if you cannot provide, don’t have kids” because its not always the peoples fault they cannot provide for kids they have…but they can decide, despite extreme desires to have kids, not to reproduce due to the inability to provide for what you create.

    23. ForceWinds Says:

      Women on welfare and very low income have no damn business to keep bringing in more and more children…especially if they’re single…which most are. It’s disgusting seeing them running the streets and acting like spoiled brats. Here’s my message to single mothers; WAKE THE f--- UP! You’re all bringing kids into this messed up world without a father and no direction in life. I’ve met single women with 4-5 kids and none of them have the same father, and none of those fathers are around. Your asses should be knocked off of any kind of government assistance. Maybe, then, you might get it but I wouldn’t hold my breath.

      Hmm. There is a glaring contradiction here with infowars. First Infowars is anti-choice but now this article states that once a woman is pregnant her body is no longer her own. Funny, pro-choice supporters and activists state that a woman has a right to choose because her body is her own. Anti-choice(anti-abortion activists such as Infowars) states that a woman does not have a right to have an abortion because it’s killing innocent life. By that logic Infowars should be pro-choice because a woman’s body is her own and if she chooses not to have a baby and have an abortion that should be her right. So what is it Infowars? Does a woman own her body or not? If she does then she should have the right to have an abortion. If it’s not then it should have no problems with the new regulations set forth in Tennessee.
      This is not only a question of editorial consistancy but also political philosophical consistancy. To be anti-abortion is to state that a woman’s body is not her own. Therefore the anti-abortion stance should be in tandem with that women should be subject to mandatory drug testing.
      Abortion and reproductive rights is not only a gender and sexual issue but also a class issue. If abortion is outlawed it will restrict the right of poor woman since affluent women will always be able to find a doctor willing to perform an abortion if the price is right. By the same token, Infowars argues that poor woman would lose control of their own bodies with this proposal of mandatory drug tests. Affluent women would not be subject to such controls. Once again the question remains, where is the logical consistancy.
      As much as I appreciate the information from Infowars, I cannot accept it’s sexual politics. To deny that abortion and reproductive rights is sexual politics is ignorant at best and hypocrisy at worst. I will not allow this to slide. If the editors and readers of Feminsting knew that Infowars was against abortion, there would be consternation and indignation. It is the epitome of hypocracy for Infowars to re-print this article while in other articles prints anti-abortion articles.
      Be careful Infowars! Today’s allies in the United Front against fascism will be tommorrow’s enemies in the struggle for the true liberation of everyone.

      As a libertarian I hate to say I agree with this even though it is against my fundamental principals. First, if their low income and are/or have children who are recieving government transfer payment, then the Government be the babies daddy and the government has the right to test the women. I also would up it to serilize the women after birth if she has drug or alchohol dependencies. In addition I would sterilize women who are recieving government payments after having two babies and recieving government payments over a two year period. I would also up the anti and enforce DNA testing and make the man pay child support payments. If the man has two children and has missed a year of support payments, I would not put him in jail. Just sterilize him also!

      This bill is not for just testing women on welfare. (1) No prenatal care; (2) Late prenatal care after twenty-four (24) weeks gestation; (3) Incomplete prenatal care; (4) Abruptio placentae; (5) Intrauterine fetal death; (6) Preterm labor of no obvious cause; (7) Intrauterine growth retardation of no obvious cause; (8) Previously known alcohol or drug abuse; or (9) Unexplained congenital anomalies.

      Likewise, if the only way to stop crime is to watch everyone constantly, then you must be for that too – or not for it because that’s something that would bother you personally.

      Drugs and pregnancy always existed but didn’t create the kinds of problems they do now. The drugs weren’t even illegal most of the time. It used to be the family unit that had to step in for an unwed pregnancy, not the govt, and that probably had a lot to do with where the stigma came from, i.e. families created the stigma since they didn’t want to wind up in that situation. They would provide the mother with feedback about the strain her actions caused them.

      Control your fascism.

      I suggest we abolish the welfare system for unmarried moms. It should only be for the elderly and truly disabled, and so many of you little freedom fighters fight against the nanny state but are ok with the welfare nanny state that encourages destructive behavior. True freedom requires true responsilbity, and when these two things are no longer connected, you have total social collapse and gov. control. Why do we charge folks with two murders when a preggo woman is killed? It is because the state sees that child as an infant human whose “life” was taken away, so we cant say the kid is a human with a right to life only when it is convenient for mom. Either end this law and officially declare a fetus a non entity or consider a woman carrying a viable child a child abuser. YOu folks see this as a state threat, testing welfare gals for drugs? I say no more welfare. When one is pregnant, they test for all kinds of diseases cuz we want to treat possible issues early on. I wish one of you freedom fighters could see the monstrotsities these kids turn into cuz of momma’s drug use. I wish you could see the deformities and the shaking of newborns in withdrawal. YOu guys think this is soooo unfair, you personally need to support these women and let the scum stay in your house. I am afreaid of the police state as well, so I say lets end the welfasre nanny state and let folks be responsilbe without going to the Big Bad Brother you are all so scared of.

      Abolish welfare if you are all so against gov. tyranny and the police state. When one is on welfare, the state does have work and ed. rules, and they punish women for getting jobs or getting married. How come none of you complain about that? You are not forced to keep a child, and you are not forced into welfare. Lots of choices out there, but if you make the choice to do drugs and want a baby, you need to stop living off taxpayers.
