Americans Need to Know the Facts Behind the Politics of Reversing Roe v. Wade
Americans Need to Know the Facts Behind the Politics of Reversing Roe v. Wade According to Center for Reproductive Rights

As absorbing as the politics of a possible Roe reversal might be, the actual consequences of such
a reversal would be drastic. According to our study "What If Roe Fell?" 30 states would be poised to criminalize abortion within a year's time. What many Americans don't realize is that the legal building blocks to overturn Roe are already in place in many states or are being quickly erected.

Without Roe v. Wade, life for American women would be thrown more than 30 years in
reverse -- returning them to the days of second-class citizenship. When a woman cannot decide for
herself when and whether she will have children, her opportunities to shape her future and care for her family are drastically reduced. Americans need to know the facts behind the politics of reversing Roe.

1. Don't Confuse Americans With the Facts, Please!
Tell them some folksy, comforting lies, followed by some hellfire condemnations, and then some real blue-sky bullshit. Then screw them to the wall.

Well, that's how it's done, isn't it?

candidate, whoever he/she is.
