Everyone who pays taxes has a right to voice their opinion about the things their taxes pay for. |
Look up Hyde amendment, dumbass. |
I love the people who are so concerned about the unborn that they vote to take away every f**king safety net to ensure the baby can be born, grow up healthy and actually give it a viable life. Not merely have it exist.
There is no love for children on the right by virtue of every despicable, draconian policy to impede a healthy life. |
People who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones. I can sort of understand what you posted, but you obviously cannot organize your thoughts well enough to comment coherently. It’s a waste of time to respond. |
The fact that you don’t understand there are actual medical reasons a parent could not/should not donate blood to their child shows how ill informed you are and why you should have zero say in any one else’s medical decisions and care. |
Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider, cannot place government funding toward abortion, receiving funds for certain services can free up other money for abortion. |
Does that include viagra? My NYC taxes are paying for some “pro-life” rural Medicaid recipient in a red state, I’m pretty sure you don’t actually want the people who pay most of the taxes in this country to make most of the decisions. If the states paying most of the taxes were actually making the decisions, we’d actually have a healthcare system that HELPED women who were pregnant and struggling, not making women bleed out in a parking lot. |
During the 2020 presidential campaign, Joe Biden reversed his previous support of the Hyde Amendment and pledged to work to overturn it if elected.[34] In 2021, he introduced a 2022 budget that completely omitted the Hyde Amendment.[34][35] A Labor, Health and Human Services bill unveiled in 2021 excluded the amendment.[36] However, the amendment was reinserted into the federal budget that was passed in March 2022. [37] 206 Democrats voted for the spending bill; 15 against it.[38] As reported in Roll Call, “Democrats voted overwhelmingly for the nondefense portion of the omnibus.” House Appropriations Chair Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn...."expressed frustration over her party's concession on Hyde [retaining it in the final passed omnibus bill]. She said she's the ‘first appropriations chair since 1977 to remove it because I understand that this is an offensive and discriminatory policy which has shut out countless women from the reproductive health care that they deserve for more than 40 years.’”[39] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyde_Amendment Why are democrats fighting hard to get rid of Hyde? |
Are your taxes paying for a “pro-life” red state medicaid recipient to kill babies? You would be ok with that so it’s a moot point. |
Citations? |
Why are republicans working hard to bring back THE COMSTOCK ACT WHICH IS WHAT THIS THREAD IS ABOUT. |
The Republican platform |
Planned Parenthood claims federal funds are not used for abortion, but money is fungible, so it is impossible to distinguish the funds used for abortions from funds used for other services they provide. So yeah- my tax dollars are paying for abortion, against my will. I don’t want to pay for anyone to have an elective abortion. If you get pregnant and don’t want your baby- pay for your own abortion. |
DP. You cannot be this dense. In addition to routinely voting against family-friendly policies supporting leave, childcare, etc., Republicans in the Senate also recently chose not to support legislation guaranteeing a right to IVF, after the blatant attack on IBF that took place in Alabama. I mean, actively showing lack of support to people trying to build their families. |
Can we just ignore this idiot who is not even making arguments in good faith because none of them make any sense whatsoever.
I will say the job's decision switch some of my more central leaning relatives over to vote Democrat because they have daughters and my family has a long history of pregnancy complications. Sister was almost 3 months premature and several of my aunts have had many miscarriages and have used IVF to become parent s |
