Steve, speaking from deep in a "red state," I assure you there's nothing over the top in that clipping. In Texas, where you can be awarded $10,000 for successfully suing anyone who's assisted a woman to get an abortion (including the taxi driver), they're talking very seriously about making it a crime to travel out of state to get one. In Missouri, the police now have the right to search your home for evidence that a miscarriage was actually an abortion. The only ray of light is that choice is still legal in half the states, including New York, California, and Illinois.
