The AP story begins with the following statement:

The House passed a bill Wednesday that would make it illegal to dodge parental-consent laws by taking minors across state lines for abortions, the latest effort to chip away at abortion rights after Republican gains in the November elections.

The first half of the statement is straightforward reporting:

The House passed a bill Wednesday that would make it illegal to dodge parental-consent laws by taking minors across state lines for abortions . . .

The second half of the statement is commentary:

. . . the latest effort to chip away at abortion rights after Republican gains in the November elections.

The second half of the statement could have been written as such:

. . . the latest effort to strengthen parental rights after Republican gains in the November elections.

The AP's ending implies that minors have (or should have) the right to abortions.

An abortion is a medical procedure that is selective the vast majority of the time.

Minors do not have the right to selective medical procedures.

The bill passed by the House makes exemptions for cases in which abortions would not be considered selective.

The bill passed by the House strengthens parental rights, something that the AP appears not to favor.
