The legislation, which states that “protections for access to abortion rights … should be supported," was blocked by Republicans who panned it as a “show vote.”
Senate Republicans on Wednesday blocked legislation led by Democrats to revive the protections of Roe v. Wade in the wake of the Supreme Court eliminating the nationwide right to abortion.
The vote was 49-44, falling short of the super-majority needed to defeat a filibuster due to broad opposition from Republicans, who dismissed it as a political stunt.
The Reproductive Freedom for Women Act, introduced last month around the second anniversary of the court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, is just a few sentences long. It states that “protections for access to abortion rights and other reproductive health care” after the 2022 ruling “should be supported.” It adds that “the protections enshrined in* Roe v. Wade …* should be restored and built upon, moving towards a future where there is reproductive freedom for all.”
You’re talking to someone who immediately switched from “don’t vote for Biden” to “don’t vote for Harris” the second they heard that Biden might let Harris run in his place. So yes, you’re exactly right with that flowchart.
Then that person is a troll and needs to be banned.
never switched
his pick for a vp never sat well with me
You absolutely switched because that option hadn’t been a possibility before.
And if it’s someone else, you’ll start saying why they shouldn’t be voted for.
Anything but stop the dictator.
