43) I need to start this post by first leading with: #Abortion rights are #HumanRights.

#ReproductiveRights also fall into the same category and will be a major issue in #Election2024.

The #GOP now realize there is no escape from the political trap created by the #SupremeCourt with the #Dobbs decision which overturned #RoeVsWade

The issue will drive #WomenVoters for the foreseeable future

IF doctors used guns to perform abortions, MAGAs would not only embrace them, but they'd brag about how many they've had or paid for.

by #NicoleNarea in #Vox:

"If Iowans can’t access abortion in-state, only those with the necessary financial resources may be able to do so elsewhere, and even then, they could face hurdles. Abortion access in the Midwest has severely contracted since the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last summer. Now, Wisconsin, Missouri, and the Dakotas have implemented bans on almost all abortions. Indiana will also implement its own ban starting in August."

One year since the fall of Roe v. Wade. The conservative step backs in the south of the US are dramatic. This is also about human rights. #RoeVsWade

"This is now a question every woman has to face: What if I am raped? What if I am in a circumstance where my health is impacted? Courageous people say: I never thought this would happen to me—what every woman starts their story with—but here I am, and here’s what happened."

Hundreds took to the streets of #Raleigh as #NorthCarolina put a new #abortion ban onto the books. "This demo represented an opportunity to begin to challenge liberalism’s local monopoly over street action around abortion."

by #RichardSchragger and #MicahSchwartzman in #IowaLawReview:

"First, we argue that abortion bans should be vulnerable to Establishment and Free Exercise challenges under doctrinal standards adopted in recent cases, which have closely scrutinized laws burdening religiously motivated conduct. Second, despite the justices’ expansive approach to religious freedom, we nevertheless predict that the Supreme Court will deny exemptions in the abortion context. It will do so not only because of the justices’ political inclinations, but also because the doctrine is sufficiently malleable to allow rejecting certain kinds of religious liberty claims while accepting others. Third, we argue that this selective application the Court’s religious liberty jurisprudence vindicates a long-standing critique of judicially mandated free exercise exemptions, namely, that such exemptions too easily permit judges to pick and choose among religious claims."

"For decades, defending pregnant people who use drugs or disobey doctors was off-message for a movement that was focused on persuading Democratic politicians and Republican-appointed judges to keep abortion legal on paper. Paltrow’s argument, which has proved prescient since Roe v. Wade was overturned, is that these cases, however unfavorable the optics may be, were the first round of a fight for the fundamental control of people who could get pregnant."

It’s been about a year since the #RoeVsWade decision “leak,” and we’ve made little measurable progress. The already safe states remained safe, but the others just got worse.

Dig deep.

Mark Robinson = pathetic hatemonger

North Carolina lt. governor has a long history of attacking gays, Blacks, Jews, Muslims, Asians on Facebook.

He does it because he's weak. He has no platform beyond hate.

"Congress passed the FACE Act in 1994, following the assassinations of two abortion doctors and a bodyguard outside two clinics in Pensacola, Florida.

Now this law, introduced in response to very real threats and deadly violence against abortion providers, is being used to prosecute two reproductive rights activists, who allegedly spray-painted the outside walls of misleading and dangerous “crisis pregnancy centers” — known as CPCs — in Florida.

Given the decimated state of reproductive justice, these charges and the broader campaign targeting Jane’s Revenge are yet another reminder that government forces, even under Democratic leadership, cannot be relied upon to stand on the side of those fighting for basic reproductive rights, let alone full reproductive justice."

Thank you @anxiousrage for posting this, the other day. Love the way Dorothy Roberts completely picks the adoption and foster care system apart, and exposes it's racist, classist and capitalist truth. #adoption #AdopteeVoices #FosterCare #FamilyPreservation #ReproductiveRights #Abortion #RoeVsWade

At least 78 #pregnancy resource centres and offices of #prolife groups have been attacked since a draft #SupremeCourt opinion overturning #RoeVsWade was leaked. Pro-#abortion domestic #terrorists claim responsibility. The attacks continued into the fall: https://catholicvote.org/pregnancy-center-attack-tracker/
