Roe vs wade was a bad court decision looking to be overturned. I wish congress has done something knowing it was bad. Countless scotus judges have said it was a bad decision. Even rgb said it was flawed
I’m a republican but I am pro-choice. Yet the party is pushing abortion bans without compromise.
I won’t vote democrat which means most likely I won’t vote. Until the republicans want to negotiate on abortion. They won’t get my vote.
I fully support the right to an abortion for any reason up until a reasonable time frame. I don’t know a single person who supports these crazy bans. I know they’re out there but they’re not in the circles I keep.
I agree with you on timeframe, but we don't really have data that shows a need to limit abortion really so it seems kind of moot. As it turns out, carrying a fetus for 9 months and then merking it at the last minute isn't a thing women do, and certainly not intentionally.
The only reason I say we need a timeframe is compromise. Otherwise we end up with nothing.
I thought roe tried to balance it well.
This really is an issue with congress. They shouldn’t have sat around doing nothing all these years.
