Washington Gov. Jay Inslee signs a measure that prohibits legal action against both people seeking an abortion and those who aid them, on Thursday, March 17, 2022 in Olympia, Wash. Inslee's signature comes days after the Legislature in neighboring Idaho approved a bill modeled on a law in Texas that allows lawsuits to enforce a ban on abortions performed after six weeks of pregnancy. OLYMPIA, Wash.
Conservative legislatures in several states have either passed or proposed new abortion restrictions in anticipation of possible changes to the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court. On Tuesday, Idaho’s Legislature sent a bill to Republican Brad Little that is modeled off the Texas law. The measure bans abortion after six week of pregnancy and allows the father, grandparents, siblings, aunts and uncles of a “preborn child” to each sue an abortion provider for a minimum of $20,000 in damages within four years of the abortion.
If the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade entirely, the decision on whether to keep abortion legal would fall to the states. California’s Democratic leaders have pledged to make the state an abortion “sanctuary” for women living in states that might outlaw or severely restrict access to the procedure. Lawmakers have introduced a number of bills to prepare for the potential influx of new patients. One bill would let letting nurse practitioners perform abortions without the supervision of a doctor.

inslee has WEAPONIZED Washington Dept of Health and Liquor control board. inslee has turned Washington into MURDER capital of US...
I didn't know I moved to a political theater! Wow, when does the show end? They don't think they really need to do this... Right? ....right?
Was legal action against abortion providers actually a problem or is this law just smoke and mirrors?
Birth control is so much less expensive and no one bocks at that......
Is precisely why, Inslee Signed the laws that ties hands of the police police Because he has no problem with murder. This is why the progressives control what medication can be used for Covid rather than let their doctors and patient make a decision. Murder is not an issue.
meanwhile zero coverage of the bill to undo police reforms that stop racial profiling and gung ho cops who shoot first...
Damn straight. WA is still the strongest state in the union. 😎🚬
Why don't women just give old white men a taste of their own medicine and start legislating what men can do with their penis, testicles, and sperm?
GOP: We're all about liberty and freedom Also GOP: But, only for old white men
