50 years of abortion rights, rescinded

Fierce Planet Posted on January 23, 2024 by jnfrJanuary 24, 2024

Yesterday was the 51st anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision in Roe v. Wade that granted abortion rights to women. Last year in their Dobbs decision, the Supreme Court reversed itself and took those rights away. In every election since, women have turned out to restore those rights, including elections in very red states. It’s very clear that this will be a primary issue for all Democrats this year. It’s also very clear that Republicans can’t hide from the fact that their abortion bans continue to harm women around the country. In some states with abortion bans, doctors are fleeing … Continue reading →

This lawless ruling

Fierce Planet Posted on April 8, 2023 by jnfrApril 8, 2023

As expected, Judge Kacsmaryk has ruled mifepristone illegal, ignoring every scrap of science and law to impose the will of the anti-abortion movement. At the same time, a judge in Washington state ruled that the FDA must keep mifepristone available, though this ruling was not for the entire U.S. (gift link). This conflict will no doubt be sent to the Supreme Court, and quickly. Pro-choice forces are moving consistently against Republicans as election defeats pile up. If the Supremes rule in such a way that abortion becomes unavailable across the states, pressure for change from women and progressives will only … Continue reading →

One step down the road

Fierce Planet Posted on March 19, 2023 by jnfrMarch 19, 2023

…towards creating the theocratic country conservatives long for. (gift link, no paywall) Wyoming’s GOP governor signs law banning abortion pills Wyoming Gov. Mark Gordon (R) late Friday signed into law a ban on abortion pills, as the state adopted what appears to be the nation’s first such state law. The new law says that it will be “unlawful to prescribe, dispense, distribute, sell or use any drug for the purpose of procuring or performing an abortion.” The law includes penalties of up to six months’ imprisonment and a fine of up to $9,000. But it exempts people who take abortion … Continue reading →

The next threat to abortion rights

Fierce Planet Posted on February 8, 2023 by jnfrFebruary 11, 2023

I’ve pulled together many more articles on the fight over abortion rights as it continues here in the States. Some are quite positive from a pro-choice point of view, as states set themselves up to be abortion sanctuaries. Some showcase the continuing efforts to further force all states to comply with the forced-birth agenda of anti-choice activists. As I have pointed out before, anti-choice activists continue to look for ways to restrict access to abortion pills in particular, since most abortions these days are medication abortions. Since the postal service is federal, there is no easy way to keep pills … Continue reading →

This was predicted, and here it is…

Fierce Planet Posted on December 28, 2022 by jnfrDecember 28, 2022

You might recall that I posted earlier about my certainty conservatives would begin to target people who provide or use medications for early-stage abortions: Medication abortion – will we lose that too? I was concerned as well that they might start to push against even informational pages like the one I keep on this site. Unfortunately, it looks like I was right, starting of course in the states where abortion has been banned. (gift link, no paywall for a while) Conservatives complain abortion bans not enforced, want jail time for pill ‘trafficking’ Six months after their Supreme Court victory, conservatives … Continue reading →

This was obviously going to happen…

Fierce Planet Posted on October 10, 2022 by jnfrOctober 10, 2022

Abortion bans stop women from getting essential, life-saving healthcare. State abortion bans are preventing cancer patients from getting chemotherapy Affidavits in Ohio show people had to leave the state for abortions before they could get cancer treatment. It’s an issue across the country. …In at least two cases, cancer patients have been blocked from receiving treatment until their pregnancies were terminated — and getting an abortion required them to leave the state. The cases underscore how abortion bans — even those with exceptions to save the life of the pregnant person — have upended patients’ lives and limited doctors’ abilities … Continue reading →

Abortion rights matter in this election

Fierce Planet Posted on October 5, 2022 by jnfrOctober 5, 2022

The big wave of voter registration we’ve seen from women since the Dobbs decision continues. Tom Bonier talks about it with Teen Vogue. Women Are Registering to Vote in Huge Numbers in Response to the Roe Decision In battleground states like Georgia, Wisconsin, and Arizona, there’s been a surge of women registering to vote. …Tom Bonier, the CEO of TargetSmart, says he was surprised by the data. “You tend not to see significant movement in voter registration,” Bonier tells Teen Vogue. …what he found was like nothing he’s ever seen in his 28 years of analyzing elections. “Women are registering … Continue reading →
