Pushing for abortion (killing of babies) is not in any way 'Healthcare' you are a fool to think a 'Mothers Choice' is is ending a human life.

conlibrarian Every Democrat in 2020 could use the same slogan: 'Putting more of other people's money in your pocket'. TaxationIsTheft

AlFranken had no rights.

Being that she is a Senator, she could have put that bill to a vote yesterday without pending a career promotion.

What about the babies in the womb or who survived abortion? She couldnt care less about their health.

She wants open borders. Meaning not even a holding area and criminal check. Genius

Nice
