@TonyStark "Pro Life" has never been a truth. Those who say they adhere to it, are pro-birth, and pro-control. They believe in imposing their ideological beliefs on the rest of us, regardless to how we feel. That's why they are prone to authoritarianism.

@MariaHill This is the quiet work of governing- not culture wars that pit Americans against one another. This is just effectively doing the people’s work.

Vote for people who get stuff done, not those who cynically seek to stoke your worst fears to attain and consolidate power.

Culture wars never brought down the costs of your healthcare.

@TonyStark Thanks for sharing this really important article, Tony. It's great work from Ian Millhiser. Courts and judicial appointments have so much impact on our lives.

@samhainnight @HankPym I suspect this flies under the radar for a lot of us. I know the staff at my local library branch but never gave any thought to the board. It's an appointed board (as I think most are). I live in an area controlled by Democrats so I'm not concerned that my local board will go rogue and start censoring. Another reason why having a Democratic mayor, county executive, county council, board of commissioners, whatever form of local government you have, matters.

I hope Iowa's action leads to a blue wave in Iowa, just as recent blue waves were accomplished in Michigan and Minnesota (which have become much better states since democratic majorities have taken control of all branches of state government).

Anyone truly pro-life would be working to clean up our water and air, and get rid of unobstructed access to guns, not force women and girls to give birth.

Mike Pence celebrated Roe’s overturn in an interview pretty recently, saying it’s belongs in “the ash heap of history.”

Pence’s party is what belongs in the ash heap of history. Let’s send it there.

@TonyStark Republicans are only the party of limited government when it comes to lower taxes for billionaires and freedom for corporations to pollute our air and water.

Republicans are the party of government overreach. They want to control what you read and think, your sex life, and, if you need an abortion or are transgender, whether you can obtain necessary medical care.

I’m with the party that wants to protect those freedoms for all of us along with the freedom to read.

@TonyStark Capitalism-loving Republican gun nuts want to sell more guns so more of us are dead and injured and suffering while they laugh all the way to the bank from ivory towers. Summary from me.

I like governors who recognize reproductive rights belong to the person involved, not an appointed judge somewhere in Texas making ideological religious-based decisions, not safety-based decisions.
