@fredmknapp follow up question: Why wasn't the victim statement supplied or why wasn't the victim allowed to testify or be apart of this story?
Also, in future reporting could I ask that the transcripts from the hearing be added to any story.

Two more cases of preventable deaths resulting from abortion bans, per a story out from Propublica today. Read the story of Josseli Barnica https://t.co/jPqjM8x8Wn

New: Republicans point to Europe where 12-week gestational age limits are more common to make the case that their new 12-week abortion bans are “reasonable” and “moderate.”

This is deeply misleading, and it's important to get clear on why:

The City of Lincoln is now the first municipality in Nebraska to offer paid parental leave to City employees. Our new policy will support maternal health and childhood development, promote local families' economic security, and help us compete for top talent.

“Getting pregnant now feels like a death sentence,” said Cook.

“They are playing with people’s lives with this law,” said Smith-Cunningham.

NEW: Two friends experienced the same life-threatening pregnancy complication in Florida.

Both were turned away from the hospital because of the state’s abortion ban.

One nearly died.

As someone who is Not A Lawyer, the phrase “chevron deference” always reminds me of the time that the previous owners of our house left a giant chevron decoration glued (!!) to the living room wall after they moved out.

Whenever the legislature live stream plays Clair de Lune I’m like, damn, that’s a lot of melancholy for 10am.

Final votes counted for Lancaster County - congratulations Senator-Elect @George4NE!

[Adelle Burk @adelleburk]

@lee__langlois @JohnforNE Scott is right, unfortunately Mike McDonnell is anti-abortion so 17 Dem votes doesn’t mean 17 votes for abortion rights.

Why would you go to the gym when you could get some cardio in by just knocking doors?

Still true.

I feel better about Daylight Savings when I remember that March Adelle loses an hour so that GOTV Adelle can have an extra hour of sleep.
