Dems need to get the legislative bandwagon rolling to make birth control and "morning after" med free to poor women (income-based) and pass legislation that makes it illegal to ban those drugs. We need to work with the medical profession to make it safe for doctors to prescribe ALL birth control meds. There are so many ways the GOP and their fringe cabal can stop productions of birth control meds or make it illegal to access them. We need to think strategically now despite our trepidation about this latest blow to Roe.
Start thinking about ways they can come after birth control and began to get our legislators ready for the fight.

(4,552 posts)One thing is very clear this change of law will NOT stop abortion. Laws did not work in the past and they won't work now.
Laws do not stop abortion in other countries. Brazil is a good example. It is 64% Catholic and abortion is illegal. It is easily accessible and the numbers are high.
Republicans refuse to do the things that will reduce abortion.
This is not about abortion. It is about control. They will come after birth control next.
