[quote=Anonymous]“On the federal level, physician and Iowa Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks and nine other Republican women introduced the Orally Taken Contraception Act of 2023, aiming to require the FDA to advise manufacturers on how to get their contraceptives approved to be sold over-the-counter.

Some state measures do the same. Arkansas’ trigger ban, for instance, defines life as beginning “at the moment of conception” and defines “unborn child” as an “individual organism of the species Homo sapiens from fertilization until live birth.”

The danger that these laws pose, Ms Fey says, is that “anytime that a particular state official wants to, they could use that to go after IVF or contraception.”” https://www.the-independent.com/news/world/americas/us-politics/republicans-contraception-abortion-2024-election-b2493130.html

92% of Americans think birth control is morally acceptable, but the GOP is setting up to go after contraception. Contraception. Let’s just let that wash over us: that the GOP wants us to… what? Stay celibate in our marriages if we’re not actively trying to conceive? Just “joyfully submit” and have 8-14 children? Try home brew abortions? What’s their plan here? In case anyone still wants to pretend that the GOP’s extremism is just BOTHSIDES.[/quote]
