These need to be seen again. Justice Ginsburg on Abortion;
She states that these restrictions being imposed do NOT affect women "of means", rather they adversely and disproportionately affect poor women.
This first vid is from 2015;
This one is from June of 2017;
This seems to me the really pertinent point. These new laws will not have any chance of stopping women from getting a safe abortion. If they have the means to travel, they will always be able to get one, if they can just get to any of the number of states that will not make the procedure illegal, no matter what the Supreme Court does with Roe Vs Wade.
It's been said that the first person to live to be 150 has already been born.
Please, PLEASE let it be Ruth Bader Ginsburg!
