WVa Gov,R, prevents the citizens from voting on abortion health care, like Kansas did





From the cited article-
https://jezebel.com/west-virginia-governor-denies-request-to-put-abortion-v-1849416917

snip-"After the fall of Roe v. Wade, some conservatives are apparently fine with “sending abortion back to the states,” but only if it means leaving the decision to gerrymandered state legislatures and not the actual voters in those states. West Virginia Governor, party-switcher, and bulldog humiliator Jim Justice (R) said Monday that he opposes a suggestion from Democratic lawmakers to put abortion access on the ballot in a referendum, according to the Associated Press. And of course he does, considering what happened when Kansas did it."

repulicans do not govern, they are not interested in governing. They are a fascist domestic terror network.

Look at everything the democrats have accomplished with a 50/50 Sentate. Historic legistlation that actually helps working people.
