TW: sexual assault
This should go without saying, but apparently it needs to be said: children shouldn’t be forced into pregnancy and parenthood. Survivors of rape shouldn’t be forced to carry their abuser’s child.

Say it with us: NO ONE should be forced to carry a pregnancy against their will.

@MorriseyWV You could at least wait to see the actual charges before being so distraught over it. One would think an attorney would realize this

@MorriseyWV Who’s the snowflake now @MorriseyWV 😂

@EdKrassen Here's the Republicans that voted to reject the bill ⬇️

Happy International Women's Day from the WVGOP.

[Kayla Young @kaylayoungforwv]

Don’t worry, West Virginia…you can still marry off your toddlers and rape your own spouse without consequence……Thanks to the majority of members in Senate Judiciary.

Bless the reasonable ones who want to protect children and spouses from abuse. We see you.

The West Virginia Building is lit up tonight to support LGBTQ rights. 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

SHAME. #VoteThemOut

[Kayla Young @kaylayoungforwv]

Senate Judiciary voted down HB3018, the bill to end Child Marriage in WV.

They first moved to table the bill without discussion, which failed, so they killed the bill instead.

For now, there will be no floor for the age of marriage in WV, endangering our kids.

[Alisa Noelle @alinoelle23]

Rucker, in sjud right now: I’m a woman, don’t speak for me 😭😭😭
Also Rucker: votes for continuing child marriage, votes against free period products for children, leads efforts to ban abortion…

[Carrie-Meghan Blanco @cmqb1980]

@chrismillergov @CPAC https://t.co/tcr1zq1u3S aligning yourself with this guy. Brilliant.

[Carrie-Meghan Blanco @cmqb1980]

@alinoelle23 he truly is, I don't know what's wrong with him

[Carrie-Meghan Blanco @cmqb1980]

@WVUFLU This is nauseating. What is WRONG with the @WVGOP that anybody would NOT support Raylee's Law?

[Shawn Fluharty @WVUFLU]

Imagine arguing FOR child abusers to be able to home school children. That's what the WVGOP did today: https://t.co/7GEULhLMLY

Being forced to carry a pregnancy to term quadruples the odds that a patient's family will live below the poverty line and triples the chance the pregnant person will end up unemployed.

Today Republicans are saying, ‘Miner’s life: $500,000.’”

“I don’t want to see a tweet. I don’t want to see a campaign mailer. I don’t want to hear uttered in the hallways of this Capitol how much you love coal miners,” #wvpol

[Aaron Hackett @hackettwva]

It really is remarkable that instead of passing laws that make people want to live in West Virginia, the legislature is just like, “we’ll literally pay you to come back and deal with how awful things are here.”

[Joe Sonka 😐 @joesonka]

Gov. Andy Beshear was just asked what his definition of "woke" is (which I've never heard him use, unlike many here in Frankfort). He said woke is the "new name calling" that people use to describe anyone they disagree with.
