@ProPublica Take politicians out of the equation—that would be a lot better for women AND their doctors.
Our US Supreme Court and Republican Policies are murdering women.
It is as simple and straighforward as that. Women are dying from untreated miscarriages, untreated ectopic pregnancies, and a host of other untreated health issures related to pregnancy.
Vote for Democrats! Pressure the the Supreme Court! Pass laws legalizing abortion! Trust women and their doctors!
There was a brief interchange about Reproductive Rights between Harris and Cheney at their town hall last week, where words were said that I am hoping turn out to be a big deal. I made a small blog post on it.

@Strandjunker only 36% of all Americans oppose #abortion in all or most cases, though, so that's 79% of 36% - around 29% - of all American men (and 21% of 36% - around 8% - of all American women).

So take heart: 71% of all American men and 92% of all American women support reproductive rights.
Now... why is the Presidential race so close... no idea...
"Trust us" says JD Vance.
"Trust women" says Tim Walz.
Who would YOU choose???

Hear Hear‼️ FWIW, those 51 votes for making Roe the law of the land would represent about two thirds of the population. Then let the no-voting Senators explain to their constituents why they don’t trust women to make their own health choices.
From 2019 to 2022, the rate of maternal mortality cases in Texas rose by 56%, compared with just 11% nationwide during the same time period,

Outstanding brief statement (1:48) by Arizona State Senator Eva Burch on the absolute necessity of electing pro-choice candidates this fall in the US.
If you haven't seen it, take a moment to watch.

Three "prolife" criminals who blocked a clinic entrance that directly led to the death of a patient, have been convicted in a second trail.
Jonathan Darnel, 41, of Arlington, Va.;
Jean Marshall, 73, of Kingston, Mass.;
Joan Bell, 74, of Montague, NJ – were each convicted of a felony conspiracy against rights and a FACE Act offense.

Scary news out of #Poland. State-funded tests can be used on women who are/ have had an #abortion.
Coming soon to a rightwing state near you?

On the more specific topic of forced birth, I also have this earlier (2009) piece, "I am not Pro-Slavery. Are you?"

I like this insight, trying to put these individual issues into a more organized picture. I think Journalism needs to do more of this. Too much we cover each action and indignity as if it were some surprise, isolated, modular incident that is unrelated to all others. In doing so, we don't get the big picture. There is a LOT of that going on these days.
This work also resonates with an essay I wrote in 2012, "Language Defines Our Lives". It had gone offline when Salon magazine's Open Salon forum was retired, but it's available via the magic of the Internet Archive. I think you'll find it interesting and relevant.

Texas 'health care' law
stinks of shameful death panels,
sans panels. Just death.
