Viability doesn't mean anything. A fetus is potentially viable at 20 weeks if you live in New York City and have access to the most advanced intensive care technology, but isn't until about 26 weeks at the earliest if you live in, say, North Dakota. Viability makes no moral difference whatsoever. What does have moral significance is whether the fetus can suffer, and that isn't possible until around 18 weeks. And even then, from a utilitarian approach the momentary suffering of the fetus will have to be weighed against the potential pain it will cause the mother --- in gestation, to give birth, and to care for it for a minimum of 18 years --- as well as the pain it will experience throughout the course of its life and whether its life, on balance, will in some sense be "worth living." 15 is too early and 24 is too late to start restrictions in my opinion, but the idea that a woman will be forced to travel a thousand miles just to undergo a 15-minute procedure is absolutely absurd. If you don't like abortion, the answer is simple: DON'T HAVE ONE! But neither you nor anyone else has any right to prohibit others from getting one without sufficient moral jusification.
