BREAKING NEWS: Over 80 of America’s top elected prosecutors defy the Supreme Court, announce that they will not prosecute any woman for having an abortion because it would “run counter” to their oaths of office and “make a mockery of justice.” RT TO THANK THE 80 PROSECUTORS!
There are over 120,000 children eligible for adoption in the United States right now and more than 400,000 in the foster care system.
So, when I see pics of these conservative married couples holding a sign that says “Don’t abort — we’ll adopt your baby”… I just don’t buy it.
1/ In Oct, I had an ectopic pregnancy, implanted in my c-section scar. I had methotrexate to help terminate this non-viable but WANTED pregnancy. Unfortunately my uterus ruptured anyway. I hemorrhaged and almost died. Emergency surgery. 5 bags of blood transfused.
“The majority has overruled Roe and Casey for one and only one reason: because it has always despised them, and now it has the votes to discard them. The majority thereby substitutes a rule by judges for the rule of law.” — Justices Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan, dissenting.
Lots of rejoicing over the demise of Roe among conservatives. But while they talk up the need to "convince women they don't need abortions," still no policies in place for medical care, childcare, food, education etc. for the poor families who will be most impacted. NOT pro-life.
If Congress eliminates or amends the Hyde Amendment, the federal government can provide abortions around the country, including at Veterans Hospitals.
This is the kind of creative thinking we need in Congress. #DG4NY
I'm a reproductive rights organizer & State Senate candidate. Last night, after speaking at our Roe rally, my Republican opponent – a police officer – violently attacked me.
This is what it is to be a Black woman running for office. I won't give up.
If you’re like “I don’t know anyone who’s had an abortion” what you’re actually saying is:
“No one I know trusts me enough to tell me about their abortion”
