This is what makes me want to pull my hair out with feminists who don't get it.
It's bad enough depending on govt and political party to legitimize abortion rights,
because of members of the public who believe in prolife.
But to support party leaders who FORCED insurance as MANDATORY FOR ALL CITIZENS through federal laws and tax policies,
THEN GO BACK and complain that prochoice and pro-abortion options are CONTESTED
(again by the SAME percentage of the population that NEVER consented and doesn't believe in funding abortion) WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?????
WHY DID YOU APPROVE FORCING INSURANCE UNDER PUBLIC POLICIES AND FEDERAL MANDATES KNOWING HALF THE NATION DOESN'T AGREE, AND PROLIFE BELIEFS ARE ALSO PART OF PUBLIC REPRESENTATION.
WHY THIS FANTASY THAT YOU CAN MAKE PUBLIC POLICY THAT EVERYONE HAS TO PAY FOR,
BUT MAGICALLY EXCLUDE THE BELIEFS OF PROLIFE PEOPLE AND PARTIES, EXPECTING THEM TO PAY ANYWAY? REALLY?
WOULD YOU EXPECT TO MANDATE CATHOLIC OR MUSLIM POLICIES FOR THE NATION.
AND EXPECT EVERYONE TO FOLLOW ALONG AND PAY FOR THAT, TOO?
sorry for yelling in ALL CAPS but I have never understood this about prochoice
and the ACA mandates just made it even worse. To me it opened the door for
prolife to start mandating their beliefs nationally for the sake of "saving lives over choice."
If the liberal Democrats have the right to force national mandates based on right to health care beliefs,
what's to stop Prolife parties from forcing national mandates based on right to life. Both are faith based.
Why is one creed made mandatory to fund and follow by federal laws, and the other discriminated against
===============================
On Wednesday, the Texas House State Affairs Committee will hear testimony on HB 3130, a harmful, anti-choice bill that would ban coverage of abortion under health insurance exchanges.
HB 3130 would disproportionately harm low-income Texans, who are more likely to rely on the health insurance exchange for coverage.
Tell the Texas Legislature: Don't limit Texans' access to reproductive health care!
