Reproductive choice groups say Tuesday’s nationwide protests were just the beginning as they set their sights on challenging the recent wave of near-total abortion bans both in court and at the polls.
Advocacy groups are looking to build off this wave of activism as they prepare to fight against a number of recently passed laws in conservative states like Georgia and Alabama that restrict a woman’s access to abortion services. The American Civil Liberties Union, Planned Parenthood and other groups have already filed lawsuits in Kentucky and Ohio, where Republican legislatures passed restrictive anti-abortion measures. The Kentucky bill prohibits abortion after six weeks of pregnancy, while the Ohio law bans the procedure after a fetal heartbeat can be detected.
Even President Donald Trump has implied that Alabama went too far with its abortion law. In a series of tweets after the law’s passage, the president wrote that his view “is the same position taken by Ronald Reagan” and said that abortion should be legal following rape or incest. While Georgia Governor Brian Kemp is not up for re-election until 2022, all 56 state Senate seats will be up for election in 2020. Right now, Republicans hold a 35-21 majority in the chamber.
Same professional protestors with different signs.
They prefer infanticide over spermaticide.

Great...a broad depiction of those too lazy to fill one of those vacant 7 million jobs.
Too bad the loons on the left started talking whack about late term abortions...now all these conservative states are shutting you down. When it's said and done there will be about 5 states who will do the deed. Should have left well enough alone.

Abortion rights advocates protest to 'stop the bans' as more states pass fetal heartbeat billsAbortion rights supporters gathered at statehouses, town squares and courthouses across the United States in a show of opposition to a wave of laws attempting to sharply restrict abortion I think that women should vote on what women should be able to do with their bodies and men should vote on what men should be able to do with their bodies. Is that sexist🙂🙂🙂 As of yet so does every state. They just feel differently about the morality of procrastination when it comes to a potential human life. A viable fetus should never die at the hand of a doctor. Viability secures it’s basic human rights. Pro Choice is OK so long as it's a baby derived from incest, rape or may cause physical harm to the mother...anything else is immoral.

Texas' 'Save Chick-fil-A' bill part of a nationwide, anti-LGBTQ effort, advocates sayLawmakers in Texas are pushing legislation that they say is about protecting the religious beliefs of individuals and businesses. Critics allege the measure is part of a nationwide effort to use religion as a weapon to discriminate against LGBTQ people. How does Chick-Fil-A discriminate against LGBTQ people? They have a sign out front that says No Gays Allowed? Quit the hyperbole and virtue signalling. Ask a Christian for one legitimate example of how they're being persecuted or how they can't practice their religion. The only thing they can say is they can't discriminate against gay people, and they really, really want to. Christian persecution is bullshit. The media war against Christian continues unabated!

Warren unveils abortion rights platform following new lawsElizabeth Warren is calling for a series of targeted measures designed to safeguard abortion rights following a flurry of new state laws that dramatically restrict women's ability to terminate pregnancies. she is right . Science states clearly that until the end of the first trimester a fetus is an extension of a woman’s body. At 24 weeks a fetus onl6 has a 50% of living with medical help and also has only just developed the connections in the brain to feel pain. Pro-lifers are anti-facts. So empty talk?
