3. Great, if you have not only money for abortion, but travel, plane, bus fare,

Get time off fr work, find somebody to watch kids, for couple of days. Friend, who works at pp, in MD says they are seeing lots of out of towner's, concerned about about the impact on Md residents trying to get abortions. And from what I am reading abortion by pill, way more painful than DC, with mild anesthesia

7. Check out the website. Also, I have posted articles from the LA Times about border clinics ...

…where people will bend over backwards to see that people get the help they need.

We are in a horrifying situation at this moment in history, but there is help to be had and we can also help.

5. Hope some of these billboards inspire people to vote Democrat

They're reminding voters how evil reQublicOns are.

6. I think that's the point

which is why his campaign is placing them rather than something from the state of CA.

8. Wonder if he's angling for a run for President...

If so, he's got my vote already. Even before this, he had my vote.

He's definitely one to watch. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE the rapid response! That part alone gets my vote, but there's so much more to him that also does.

12. Def has my vote.

17. I want see VP Harris run first.

I would love for him to be her running mate.

[calimary]

21. Much as I hate to say this,

I fear Harris would never win.

She won’t be the first woman President. And if she were our nominee I WOULD vote for her and I would support her campaign. But I don’t see broad-based ardent enthusiastic voter support for her.

And I would be very happy to be wrong! I worked hard for Hillary Clinton’s campaign. I STILL think she would have made a GREAT President.

Even now I’m on the lookout for the next viable woman candidate. And I’m eager for a First Gentleman! LOVE the sound of that!

[OneCrazyDiamond]

23. I wouldn't want to explain us skipping her to

African Americans especially AA woman. They have saved our majorities too many times to get this close and have us say "No, Give Me Gavin". I like the sound of Give Me Gavin. Reminds me of I Like Ike.

Personally I would elect a literal leech before anyone the other side puts up. I just think it should be VP Harris in 2028. I bet we will see President Biden start positioning her in the second half of his second term. The hand off will be glass smooth.

5 years ago I would stand ovating to First Gentleman.
Gender studies has let me towards First Partner. Government titles should be neutral.

24. There DEFINITELY is that.

She’ll have to fight her way through primary season, which will be an excellent way to determine her viability as the eventual standard-bearer.

I’m actually VERY interested to see how this plays out.

And there’s another thing to consider:
Assume Biden wins a second term. It’s certain VP Harris will be his running mate again. And then, since I think he’s be the oldest serving President ever, would he make it through a second term? If not, Harris would become President, and then she’d have the weight, power, and symbolism of the Presidency ON HER. And the power of incumbency when it’s assumed she’d run for the top job in her own right, in 2028.

25. I agree. She will be I a great position.

She still has to survive the primary. If she doesnt, it needs to be another woman of color. I am hoping we it isn't an overcrowded primary again.

11. We should launch same in Michigan.

15. Illinois should also do that in WI and MO. NT

[Captain Zero]

16. Illinois should do that in INDIANA

Especially the 20 Indiana counties with no ob/gyn.

Indiana has 92 counties.

[ShazzieB]

18. Yes, and maybe Iowa, too.

Abortion is still legal there for now, but there's a 24 hour waiting period requiring 2 separate visits 24 hours apart. Also, Repugs are working on legislation to add more restrictions.

13. wowowowowow!!!!! brilliant!

19. This made the a.m. radio news reports yesterday...

TEMECULA, Calif. (KABC) -- The city of Temecula in southwest Riverside county is known for tourism. From its sprawling vineyards, to casino gaming to hot-air balloon rides.

But it soon could become the first city in California to attempt to ban abortions, if one Temecula city council member gets her way.

"I know there are some who would question whether protecting our unborn is a state matter or a city issue," said city councilperson Jessica Alexander at Tuesday's council meeting. "This is our city, and what happens in our city is our responsibility."
