But eventually most of these issues are likely to be resolved by #SCOTUS, & the court’s 6-member #Republican-appointed majority has generally ruled in ways that favor the #conservative #social-policy priorities reflected in the #redstate actions. That inclination was most dramatically demonstrated in last year’s #Dobbs decision, when the Court overturned the #constitutional #right to #abortion.

The #senator asserts that this blanket & #unprecedented “hold,” which he has maintained for >6 months, is about opposition to #Defense Dept #policies that ensure #ServiceMembers & their #families have #access to #ReproductiveHealth no matter where they are #stationed.
After the Supreme Court’s decision in #Dobbs…, this policy is critical & necessary to meet our obligations to the force. It is also fully w/in the #law, as confirmed by the #Justice Dept’s Office of #Legal #Counsel.

I had the opportunity to speak with Nina Totenberg, @npr legal correspondent. After 50 years of reporting, she has a unique perspective on #SCOTUS.
We talked about #Dobbs, the lack of an ideological center, whether journalists needed to cover the court differently, institutional legitimacy, the Alabama redistricting case, and of course, the Court's #ethics issues.

In 2022 #Alito wrote the majority opinion in #Dobbs v. Jackson, overturning #Roe v. Wade, a precedent then 50 yrs old and repeatedly upheld.

@heidilifeldman @Dahlialith It’s a devastating, spot-on piece. There must be a way to broadly call out the right wing’s “we’re the *real* victims here” m.o. The #GOP is the Party of Personal Responsibility™️ for everyone but themselves. Manipulative, mewling, privileged, “poor us!” bullies. It’s infuriating and insidious.
“You see, it’s not him. It’s you. You’re making the justices fly on private flights. Look what you made him do.”

In his required annual #FinancialReport, #ClarenceThomas said he opted to fly on the #PrivateJet of his friend & #benefactor, #HarlanCrow, for ONE of the trips on the advice of his security detail. The justices faced heightened security risks, #Thomas noted, after the May, 2022 #leak of the court’s majority opinion to eliminate the nationwide right to #abortion & overturn #RoeVWade.
(except he took a number of similar travel gifts prior to the #Dobbs leak & decision)

"In the United States, the political might of women has accelerated, with a Democratic bent, in the wake of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which overturned Roe v. Wade. The result might be a redrawn political map and new setbacks for the forced-birth MAGA movement."

Our friends at Pro-Choice North Carolina are hosting a week-long fundraiser and educational event to inform the public about the current state of abortion access in North Carolina.
Their goals are to educate North Carolinians about the changes to abortion access since the overturning of Roe v Wade and the passing of SB20 in NC, and to empower advocates to help them restore that access!

Completely heartbreaking #abortion & #pregnancy story💔…
but simultaneously could’ve been prevented!
“& so #dobbs has compounded America's #maternalhealth crisis: more #women are delivering more #babies in areas where there are already not enough doc’s to care for them, while abortion #bans are making it more difficult to recruit qualified providers to the regions that need them most."https://apple.news/A6IKvaYYKRsmxuMdSIakIoA

Thank you to the reporters who are using their platforms to lift up stories about how #Dobbs is undermining access to care including and beyond abortion for people with chronic health conditions.
In a new story, Jeannie Baumann for Bloomberg Law explains how Kentucky's abortion ban kept a pregnant patient from accessing the standard-of-care treatment for cervical cancer. Everyone should read this story. https://lnkd.in/eXqWdBr5

Oppressing the rights of women weakens these countries
#Equality not oppression, celebration not suppression
The path is clear— all citizens regardless of gender need to be given a path to full citizenship—
Alito's #Dobbs is an obscenity in a free and open society

College professors in Idaho, one of 15 U.S. states that have recently ceased nearly all abortion services, say they have altered coursework and scrubbed their online profiles of their research to exclude any discussion of abortion. ABC News reports: https://flip.it/A_Fc_i
