Ugh.

"A year after granting Medi-Cal access to low-income immigrants without legal status, Gov. Gavin Newsom is proposing to freeze enrollment of new recipients and charge premiums in a move expected to save the state more than $5 billion.

Under Newsom’s proposal announced today, Medi-Cal — the state’s health insurance program for low-income people and those with disabilities — beginning in 2026 would no longer accept new enrollees 19 and older who lack permanent legal status."

«The Trump admin has moved aggressively to revoke temporary legal status of 100s of 1000s of #immigrants who were allowed into the country under President Biden

Now, the admin is taking drastic steps to pressure some of those immigrants and others who had #LegalStatus to “self-deport” by effectively canceling the #SocialSecurity numbers they had lawfully obtained, according to documents reviewed by The #NewYorkTimes & interviews w/ 6 people familiar w/ the plans»

#LegalStatus of Women in Ancient #Rome

During the early days of Rome, daughters “had equal rights with sons to a share of the family property” (Rawson, 18) when the father died. Despite #GuardianshipLaws passed in #169BC, Roman women managed to acquire property and wealth.

While women were not allowed to hold political offices (only religious positions), some women, like the #VestalVirgins, were exempt from #guardianship laws.

Legal Status of Women in Ancient Rome

During the early days of Rome, daughters “had equal rights with sons to a share of the family property” (Rawson, 18) when the father died. Despite #GuardianshipLaws passed in #169BC, Roman women managed to acquire property and wealth.

While women were not allowed to hold political offices (only religious positions), some women, like the #VestalVirgins, were exempt from #guardianship laws.

One of my translation projects was to translate an #AncientGreek legal document -- which outlines how a husband was justified in killing his wife's lover -- by discovering him in the "private" areas of his house. As for the wife, she was treated as a child and was blameless -- though disgraced...

Title: Athenian Household Layout

Two images: One showing a cut-away of an Athenian house -- showing the "public" and "private" areas. The storeroom, courtyard and shop were were "public" business was conducted. The upstairs bedrooms were off-limits to strangers.

Second image is a upstairs floor plan of an Athenian house.

Women's rights in Greece and Rome were more of my specialty -- especially ancient Greece. And yes, all this was how it was -- women had few rights under #Athenian #patriarchy.

#LegalStatus of Women in #Ancient Greece

Women were dependent on fathers, husbands, or #kyroi (appointed guardians). They could not own property, and were considered wards of their fathers or kyroi.

In #500BCE, fathers could sell their unmarried daughters “who had lost their #virginity” (Blundell, 69) into slavery.

“#Inheritance was #patrilineal” (Blundell, 66) – even if a daughter was the only child, she could not inherit her father’s property – it would be passed down to “her sons” (Blundell, 66), or “more distant [male] relatives” (Blundell, 66).

Marriage in #AncientEgypt

In ancient Egypt, it is believed that “most marriages were arranged, with an eye to social and financial advantages” (Watterson, 15).

Most Egyptian men had one wife, although men of higher status could take on other wives or concubines “with the agreement of the spouse” (Watterson, 16).

Marriage was considered a legal contract, drawn up by the “prospective husband and the bride’s father” (Watterson, 15), but often the bride was the “contracting partner (Watterson, 16) and represented her own interests.

Women were allowed to initiate divorce and “often came out of the marriage with more security than many modern women” (Watterson, 16).

If a man initiated the divorce, he “had to return her dowry, give her the marriage gift […] and pay her compensation” (Watterson, 16). If the woman initiated the divorce, she “was given back her dowry and usually a share of any property” (Watterson, 16) acquired after the marriage.

Both “parties were free to remarry” (Watterson, 16) after the divorce.

Marriage in Ancient Egypt (cont'd)

Women were allowed to initiate divorce and “often came out of the marriage with more security than many modern women” (Watterson, 16).

Legal Status of Women in #AncientEgypt

In ancient Egypt, women “enjoyed the same rights under the law as a man” (Watterson, 16). They could “buy, sell, be a partner in legal contracts […] bring an action to court, and adopt children in her own name” (Watterson, 16), without having to consult a guardian or other male authority figure.

Property passed down through the #matrilineal line, from “mother to daughter” (Watterson, 16), perhaps because back then “maternity [was] a matter of fact, paternity a matter of opinion” (Watterson, 16).

[Thread] So, the following is from a presentation I gave at a Women and Gender Studies class I took in 2017 (as a Classics Major). I thought it was important to post here -- especially in this day and age where women's reproductive rights are being threatened. In some ways, we've taken a step backward as time has gone on...

@politemenace yeah I've been using the hashtag #TwitterImplosionMigration for the #GLAM / #LIS #ChangeManagement implications over on #theBirdSite, but given the lack of #legalstatus complexities wrt our membership on said sites, I'd say we're more... out-of-towners or like... #BirdsiteSnowBirds? 🤔
