Abortion; a social justice issue

Currently in the United States, a hot topic that is discussed as a serious social justice issue is Abortion.   The United States government is trying to regulate the laws and conditions concerning abortions.  There are around 1.21 million abortions each year in the United States, and Republicans are fighting to cut down that number severely.  Politicions with a religious background, are the specific individuals that are trying to regulate the rights on Abortion, while others are able to see both sides of the situation.  I do not believe the government should be involved in regulating the rights of Abortion.  Abortion should be available to women that seriously believe it will be the best choice for not only their future, but the unborn child.  Women that may have had unfortunate circumstances such as rape, or have an unstable home life that would be not fitting for a child to grow up in.  I understand abortion is a very conflicting topic with the facts presented by both sides.  I hope in the near future both political parties are able to meet at a middle ground, and give women the right to choose how to handle their situation without sever judgment.
