As someone who keeps her children (born and unborn) away from data detection, I know how catastrophic the #MOMS bill’s national #pregnancy database is.
But I am also a scholar who studies #NASA, so I know a government handout bill when I see one.
Look past the website to Title II, section 1a, eligibility for government grants for maternal support.
This is a #handout for pro-life nonprofits, with restrictions against funding for orgs like #PlannedParenthood , dressed up as maternal support.
@failedLyndonLaRouchite I’m not a #uspol expert, but the novel enmeshing of a privacy-violating technical system with anti-abortion politics might mean there is an opportunity for new bedfellows when it comes to lobbying on the Hill. Pro-choice and pro-privacy advocates must join forces to guard against the dual dystopias inherent to this Attwoodesque proposal. As in, @eff meet #PlannedParenthood
A collection of far-right #Missouri senators is putting the health of millions of Missourians at risk by engaging in a pointless #filibuster. The group is demanding that the governor sign a bill to prohibit #PlannedParenthood from receiving any #Medicaid reimbursements, and lawmakers must pass a bill that would make it harder for Missourians to change the #constitution. These people are despicable and the Missouri voters should vote them out.
Monte Francis speaks to Elizabeth Sepper, a law professor at the University of Texas and a nationally recognized scholar of religious liberty, health law, and equality, about #Florida 's ban on most #abortions after six weeks of #pregnancy, which went into effect Wednesday. She says that women across the socio-economic spectrum are going to find that in crisis their lives and #health will be put at risk because of the ban.
Orange County ex-Marine sentenced for bombing Costa Mesa Planned Parenthood.
He was an active duty Marine at the time of his arrest. His aim was to start a race war, fueling arguments about the US military's inability to root out rightwing extremists.
#Iowa’s Supreme Court heard oral arguments Thurs in a case that could decide the future of #abortion in that state, the latest in a series of #legal battles that threaten abortion #access across the country during a historic #election year.
At issue is a ban passed by the legislature last July that restricts the procedure after 6 wks of pregnancy…. #PlannedParenthood & others immediately sued to block the #law & won a preliminary injunction from a lower court.
During the…hearing in DesMoines, the justices on #Iowa’s highest court asked lawyers for each side how the state’s past #abortion rulings —which in recent yrs narrowed #protections for abortion—apply to the pending law. #AbortionBan#ReproductiveRights#AbortionIsHealthCare
Harris plans to tour the clinic & speak to healthcare providers. The VP may also talk to patients, though Harris wants to make sure she doesn’t disrupt any services during her visit. She could also speak to reporters outside the clinic.
Today in Labor History March 3, 1873: U.S. Congress enacted the Comstock Law, making it illegal to send any "obscene literature and articles of immoral use" through the mail. This included any literature discussing birth control. The authorities imprisoned many birth control and free love advocates for violating the law, including Emma Goldman and Margaret Sanger.
"Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey filed a lawsuit Thursday against Planned Parenthood, relying on a staged, edited video from a right-wing group to accuse the organization of illegally transporting minors out of state for abortions."
omfg I just connected the dots today that the #LeanaWen who has been at the forefront of the #COVID minimization movement and has been wrong about COVID over and over and over again without and self-awareness or contrition, is the same Leana Wen who was hired as the president of #PlannedParenthood and then fired after only 8 months because she wanted the organization to focus less on protecting abortion rights. That makes so much sense y'all.
The US was founded on the bible, therefore only Christians have rights.
Voter suppression is a myth.
Book Banning is a myth.
Dems routinely abort babies in the 9th month and after birth (?!?)
Books being banned teach children how to give blow jobs.
I am a cunt, bitch, liar, and the n word. I am told to fuck off alot. I deserve combat/moron pay! I was not much of a fan of humanity before, but this is really pushing me off a ledge. 🤮
At least I can apparently hang up on the ignorant scumbags with impunity 😂
