The US is actually going to implement a nationwide abortion ban and the measures for how it’s going to be handled are already in the works. This bill, which I link to here: https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-resolution/7/text , seems ok at first glance and only seems to want to implement nationwide healthcare centers for women. But when you actually look at what these Pro Women’s Healthcare Centers are and mean to offer, it becomes really clear what’s going on.
On the first page of the PDF or booklet that appear when you search for the healthcare centers it is clear that they are supported by pro-life organisations and hold extreme pro-life values. And when you read the (very short) booklet it states their values and services that are to be provided. Among them is a requirement for “Abortion Pill Reversal” and encouragement for “Sterilization Reversal”. The last page clearly states their values, where among them it states that:
“Abortion is not women’s healthcare, because of the damage it causes to women’s physical and emotional health and the destruction of unborn life, many of whom are females. Abortion is usually something women turn to when they feel they do not have another choice. This is a tragedy and the opposite of choice and empowerment.”
And it goes on to list similiar values. The bill to implement these healthcare centers states that:
"That the House of Representatives—
(1) expresses its support for women nationwide to have access to comprehensive, convenient, compassionate, life-affirming, high-quality health care; and
(2) recognizes the high standards established by Pro Women’s Healthcare Centers consortium as standards worth implementing nationwide."
This means that the values that these Pro Women’s Healthcare Centers have are to be set as standards nationwide.

Fucking wrong. It was a “fuck you” to my niece, born with a lifelong medical condition. It was a “fuck you” to my non-cis partner. It was a “fuck you” to my trans cousin. It was a fuck you to my gay neighbor. It was a fuck you to all the little girls who are going to be forced to give birth before their 13th birthday. It was a “fuck you” to kids just trying to go to public school and get some semblance of an education. The only people it wasn’t a “fuck you” for, were the goddamn knuckle dragging hooting bigots who wanted trump in office. Someday, hopefully, we’ll get another election, and I hope, if you’re still alive, that you remember that voting isn’t just a right, it’s a fucking responsibility, and when you squander your vote on a useless protest when the fate of the entire country is on the line, and you know that it is, you won’t fucking waste it, like you did last year.
Oh fuck off. I’m a queer woman in a blue state living under the anti democratic electoral college. Hold the fucking democrats responsible for their failures instead of crying to me about something I have ZERO control over. I could of voted for trump, Harris, Mickey Mouse, none of if would fucking matter. My state went to Holocaust Harris no matter who the fuck I voted for.
Blocked.
You know who said fuck you to all the above in your comment? THE DEMOCRATS WHEN THEY REFUSED TO PROTECT DEMOCRACY BY HOLDING LEGITIMATE PRIMARIES. THE BIDEN ADMIN WHEN THEY SLOW WALKED TRUMPS J6 INVESTIGATION. THE DEMOCRATS WHEN THEY SENT A BLANK CHECK TO ISRAEL SUPPORTING THEIR GENOCIDE, SOON TO COME HERE TO AMERICA. but like a fucking fool all you’ll do is vote for them over and over again expecting a different result. THEY brought us fascism. Not a fucking queer woman from vermont you fuck.
For anyone down here, witness; their slight discomfort mattered more than the actual pain and suffering happening to their community already, which is why they threw a fit when confronted with the truth of their actions. Learn from this, and don’t be like them.
