AMEN. We should also be talking about the woman who died in Texas, who was denied care. The many women with close calls, or needed to travel to other states. The 10yr pregnant thru incest/rape who had to leave OH to go to Indiana(of all places) to receive an abortion.

Plus no matter why a woman or a young girl needs reproductive care, it’s mostly none of anyone’s damn business.

Women’s two least favorite things: lying&hypocrisy are on full display in these laws.

Many of the people voting, espousing these laws simply believe those laws won’t apply to the women in their lives.

Exactly - none of their damn business.

If some 25-year-old female doesn't think abortion is the right thing to do, then don't do it, it's that simple. If you don't like abortion, don't have one.

The Forced-Birthers don't care about a fertilized egg or the actual baby that will be born in 9 months or the 3-year-old living in poverty with domestic abuse, they don't give a shit about any of this......it is *only only* about control and domination of women. All rooted in toxic christianity.

One of the things that makes me most angry is GOP self righteous refusal to pay for prenatal vitamins.

As a person who had reproductive issues,&have daughters in law.

These issues make me furious

Harris framed this issue so well for Howard Stern’s male audience. Forget about abortion for now; imagine instead that the government had control over ANY part of your body. That is the bleak truth of what women now live, and one that men who don’t have female partners or female (grand)children (i.e., young men) might also understand.

What might that mean for them? The porn industry knows, which is why they’re fighting back against Project 2025 and the Trump/Vance ticket. Creepy Mike Johnson’s anti-masturbation porn surveillance app awaits, guys. They’re not kidding, and they’re not going to stop at abortion. They’re coming for your junk too.

They will come for who you can marry first. Then birth control. Only after that will they go bc after porn, because the industry has deep pockets, and can fund a lot of campaign advertising.

Thank you! It is so late . . . these 6 are the issue, these have done the most damage, these can be removed only by Democratic and progressive candidates.

Dobbs - Citizens United - ‘T#v*% is a king’ - killed Chevron- killed voting rights . . . it goes on and on

Right on! What also kills me is that these abortion bans or near bans have been an unmitigated disaster everywhere in the world they’re enacted. They don’t reduce abortion rates; they increase maternal and infant mortality. They fail on every measure conceivable as public policy: no or negative public health value while violating international human rights accords and medical best practices. And don’t get me started on the costs, both to individuals and the health system, of what amounts to nothing more than a grisly feel good exercise for right-wing Christians.
