Everyone has the right to decide what to do with their own body!
This law was trash and so are all the rest. Happy tears today. Give some money to

Positions like this - that some abortions are ok and some aren’t - are moral judgements. I *don’t* believe that I have the right to judge someone else’s decisions about their own body.

As I have said many times before, I believe women who are survivors of rape or incest should be able determine whether to continue with a pregnancy that is the result of a criminal act.

The Louisiana suit filed today asking for a stay of La’s trigger law was filed by the incomparable Ellie Schilling, who has been doing this work in La. for YEARS. Local advocates have always been on the front lines. Proud to call her a friend & former colleague

FWIW My old DC friends say Graves is one of the better GOP members. Not just from Louisiana, out of all of them.
It’s also not surprising to me that it might be Louisiana that torches the R majority. This place is ungovernable at times. I cannot explain this to ANYONE up there.
GOP plan to force out Rep. Garret Graves befuddles U.S. House Republicans

This is rape of a teen girl by an adult man. Use the right words!
In the plea, Higgenbottom admitted to having sex with the girl on March 4, 2021, after forcibly pushing her onto a bed multiple times and getting on top of her "where she could not go anywhere."

What a scam. I could “create” a fake maternal center in 10 minutes & solicit donations, & never prove that it exists. Also: the bill does not allow
@LADeptHealth
oversight 🚨 & does not require a licensed health care provider. These centers are SCAMS taking YOUR money.

@LouisianaGov
signed a new tax credit into law for donors to anti-abortion pregnancy centers.
Only donations to pregnancy centers affiliated with three Christian networks for anti-abortion centers will qualify.

The feds need to step in re: homeowners insurance in Louisiana (maybe similar to federal-backed flood insurance?). If people can’t insure their homes - 63% increase is NOT an option! - they will (1) leave in droves or (2) lose everything in the next storm.

“Legal personhood” now codified in Louisiana law (sperm + egg = person) will have unknown repercussions. It may trigger child support, inheritance, criminal statutes etc. at conception & as G points out, we are already one of the most incarcerated places on earth…. 1

She tried to prevent this with MULTIPLE bills and tried to tell people the criminalization aspects of this (reminder: Louisiana incarcerates the most people per capita on EARTH)
