Forcing a woman to have a child conceived through rape or having to keep the baby when there are risks to the woman is unbelievable

You should probably read more in detail. No one is forcing women to have kids...they can still use the 12+ contraceptive devices out there. Abortions that help for medical reasons will remain unchanged. Essentially NOTHING has changed aside from it being state by state, instead of Federal. Which was literally what is was before, except now there's more flexibility. I don't get how this is hard to understand...
Want an abortion? Take a plan b or use contraceptives.
Your state doesn't allow abortions? Travel to one that does.
Keep in mind that states like Texas and other back water ones, want to ban/make it a felon to take the pill/have abortions (even in cases of rape) and some already do (before this even happened). Women can still do the same thing they were doing before. You know also, use condoms and plan b, be responsible.
And how do you know the woman who was raped is not allergic to those forms of birth control?
How about we put all options on the table so rapists don't get to choose the mother of their kids?
one of those problems democrats could have solved a long time ago, but they need things to fight and rally against…
This is about white negative white birth rate. Still won't save them.... Most women who will be stuck with kids will be lower income women.
Women with resources (most white folks) will find ways to deal with it.
That's less of an abortion and more of a life saving medical intervention. Republicans are definitely supervillains because even with victory in hand they just have to be so eeeeeeeeeeeevil they'll risk unraveling their own work. Medical intervention and rape/incest abortions make up 10% or less of total abortion (correct me if I'm wrong). If all anti-abortion states allowed exceptions for these abortions they would still have essentially eradicated abortion. Stories of women suffering zombie pregnancies, dying, birthing vegetable children, unwanted rape babies and incest products, no matter how rare, could potentially rally a formidable opposition.
This is just cruelty for the sake of cruelty.
How are you the party or life when your policy risks the death of the mother by a zombie fetus who will die anyway? You can't even say you protected the child.
This is a level of cartoon supervillainy bordering on retarded. And this is the party that actually achieves it's political goals.This country should be classified as a mentally disabled person. We need protection from ourselves.
And you should read slower. What does this have to do with what I said?
Do you think a woman can tell a rapist to put on a condom?
If a woman wants to get pregnant and finds out after the fact that having the baby would put her life in danger, is she supposed to travel back in time?
I’m not talking about irresponsible women just letting dudes nut in them without a care in the world

Your broad loves me.....
You nikkas know white women benefit the most through affirmative action right?
What is the alternative to affirmation action since the republican party won't allow anything which does not benefit white folks?
Without affirmative action most black people won't have their well deserved position in corporate America...so we should throw the baby out with the bath water?

If they love life so much how about providing more support/labor rights for mothers?

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., on Thursday sent out a fundraising email touting her work to protect women's health care after shooting down President Joe Biden's proposal to codify abortion rights.
Biden on Thursday called for the Senate to support a filibuster carveout to pass a federal law ensuring the right to an abortion.
"The most important thing ... we have to change -- I believe we have to codify Roe v. Wade in the law," Biden said during a news conference at the NATO summit in Madrid. "And the way to do that is to make sure the Congress votes to do that. And if the filibuster gets in the way, it's like voting rights -- it should be (that) we provide an exception to this ... requiring an exception to the filibuster for this action to deal with the Supreme Court decision."
The plan was quickly shot down by Sinema and Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., who have opposed scrapping the filibuster. Sinema's office told CNN that the senator is "still opposed to gutting the filibuster on any topic including on reproductive rights."
Sinema was accused of hypocrisy after repeatedly touting her support for abortion rights. Former Obama administration digital strategist Tim Fullerton flagged a fundraising email Sinema's campaign sent out Thursday touting her work to "protect women's health care."
Sinema said after the Supreme Court last week struck down federal abortion protections that the ruling "endangers the health and wellbeing of women."
"Throughout my time in Congress, I've always supported women's access to health care, and I'll continue working with anyone to protect women's ability to make decisions about their futures," she said in a statement that noted she has "repeatedly voted in favor of protecting women's right to choose and is a cosponsor of the Women's Health Protection Act."
Democratic strategist Sawyer Hackett noted that Sinema and Democrats were only able to confirm Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson with 53 votes because of an existing filibuster carveout.
"Why wouldn't she do it to pass the bill to codify Roe—a bill she cosponsors?" he tweeted.
John LaBombard, Sinema's former spokesman, dismissed criticism of the senator, describing a filibuster carveout to protect abortion rights as a "progressive purity test."
Sinema last year wrote a Washington Post op-ed arguing that Democrats "have more to lose than gain by ending the filibuster."
"To those who want to eliminate the legislative filibuster to expand health-care access," she wrote, "Would it be good for our country if we did, only to later see that legislation replaced by legislation… defunding women's reproductive health services?"
Sinema's explanation was rejected by Arizona Democrats, who censured her for backing the filibuster as the party tried to codify voting rights during a nationwide Republican crackdown on ballot access. Some progressives have already launched efforts to back a primary challenger to Sinema in 2024.
There is, of course, nothing to stop Republicans from forcing their own filibuster changes if they regain control of the Senate in the midterm elections regardless of what Democrats do this term. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., who previously eliminated the filibuster for Supreme Court nominees, floated the possibility of passing a federal abortion ban earlier this year.
McConnell's Senate strategy during Biden's first two years in office has heavily relied on obstruction from Manchin and Sinema. The Republican leader has repeatedly pointed to Sinema's opposition to rolling back the Trump tax cuts — which she campaigned against — to privately assure Republicans that she would help kill his legislative agenda.
"Hopefully that will be enough to keep this thing underwater permanently," he said publicly during a Kentucky Chamber of Commerce event this spring.
McConnell went further on Thursday, vowing to kill the bipartisan United States Innovation and Competition Act — a bill that invests in American industries to bolster U.S. competitiveness with China that passed the Senate 68-32 — if Democrats move ahead with a reconciliation bill to lower drug prices.
Rep. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., a potential Sinema primary challenger, tweeted that the "only reason he can make that threat" is because he knows Sinema and Manchin empower him "by not neutering the filibuster."
Longtime progressive advocate Nina Turner called out the Democratic Party for allowing the two senators to hold their agenda hostage.
"Manchin and Sinema deserve to face consequences," she tweeted. "Would Mitch McConnell allow two Republican senators to derail the GOP agenda? No he would not."
Correction: This article previously said Sinema supported a filibuster carveout to raise the debt ceiling. It was a workaround that passed with 60 votes.

Sinema kills plan to codify abortion rights — then fundraises on protecting women’s health care
