Hey #Florida residents
There is still time to get your signature on the petition to add #abortion protections to the state constitution! Even better? There are multiple options on how to get the paperwork to them. You can also get the paperwork in English, Spanish, or Creole.
This is promoted and backed by Planned Parenthood Action Fund, SEIU 1199, ACLU of Florida, and many other organizations. Please add your voice to this cause to protect #ReproductiveRights in this state.
You can find out more, get copies of the proposed amendment, and find drop off locations here: https://floridiansprotectingfreedom.com/petition/
"In this moment of surging momentum for abortion rights ballot initiatives, with Republicans running from the issue, and Democrats seeing it as their saving grace for 2024, the anti-abortion movement is at odds with democracy itself. That’s why abortion opponents in Ohio started by attacking the democratic process when they tried to raise the threshold to pass a constitutional amendment in August."

You may have noticed the name of this blog and wondered what this is all about. Am I going to scream at you that abortion is murder and stopping the baby killers? No. Well… unless the subject is infant and maternal mortality in the United States, in which case I will tell you that our terrible racist healthcare “system” and lack of reproductive rights does in fact put babies, and their mamas, at risk. The United States leads the industrialized world in infant and maternal mortality, and not in a good way.
There are a number of reasons why this is the case:
- Lack of comprehensive health care – the US leads the world in bankruptcies from illness
- Rampant poverty, especially among younger women of color of childbearing age
- High rates of unwanted pregnancies (for a number of reasons – will go into detail in a future blog post)
- Relatively poor health: high rates of diabetes and other chronic debilitating health issues as well as lowest life expectancy of industrialized countries
- Lack of prenatal care (will address this in the future – know that this is connected to the US’ overall rejection of reproductive rights for women)
In every point made above, there is a readily available solution. In fact, every other industrialized nation has solved this problem, and it would be relatively easy for the US to address these issues. The irony is that those most opposed to abortion – those with the gall to call themselves “pro-life” – have resisted every opportunity to address any of the above issues. Every. Single. Time. In fact, they are the ones most vehemently opposed to addressing these problems. Sickening, no? Isn’t it odd that those who call themselves “pro-life” are actually ensuring that more women and children die?
One of the reasons I started this blog and named it “We Are Pro-Life” is because we, those of us who actually care about people in our communities, we are the real pro-life advocates. We are the ones who advocate for trans lives. We are the ones who defend black lives. We are the ones with the core belief that everyone is equal in the eyes of our creator.
We. Are. Pro. Life.
Not those other clowns.

"The overturn of Roe has intensified the struggle between those who don’t want strict abortion bans to trump the life and health of the pregnant person and absolutists who see preservation of a fetus as the singular goal, even over the objections of the majority of voters. In the states where near-total abortion bans went into effect after Roe’s protections evaporated, the absolutists have largely been winning."

‘Michigan has showed the world’: Whitmer signs pared-down Reproductive Health Act into law
Underneath a digital billboard that said, “Today we are taking another bold step forward to ensure Michigan laws reflect Michigan values,” Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer on Tuesday signed into law bills that repeal several abortion restrictions in Michigan.
The ceremony, held at Schoolcraft College’s Vistatech Center in Livonia, featured dozens of reproductive rights supporters and elected officials, including Lt. Governor Gilchrist, state Sen. Sarah Anthony (D-Lansing), state Rep. Laurie Pohutsky (D-Livonia) and Dr. Sarah Wallett, chief Medical operating officer of Planned Parenthood of Michigan.
“Across the nation, the American people are standing up for abortion rights,” said Whitmer. “We’ve seen it again and again. They’ve looked to Michigan because we showed the world. When you speak truth to power, when you fight for the issue and fight for the people, you can win on this issue.”

5) This article was published 3 days prior to the #DublinRiots and gives a small sense of the odd alliance that is the #FarRight and how they use #SocialMedia to promulgate their dreck
What’s odd about the alliance? I find it head scratching that the associated ragey posts are directed at #Migrants, #ClimateChange, #ReproductiveRights, #Vaccines to name just 4 areas. All topics sure to drive wedges in #WesternDemocracy. The question is at the behest of who and why?
"You might assume that conservatives would heed this warning [i.e., that abortion rights are a highly motivating issue for many voters] after getting repeatedly creamed in elections for the last two years over abortion.
But some Republicans are undeterred. You see, they know better than voters."

Then they saw a significant majority (including many Republicans) vote to adopt an abortion-rights amendment to the state constitution. Now they're trying to strip the courts of jurisdiction to interpret the new abortion-rights amendment.

But as with anything, the opportunities cut short by #Jezebel's closing down may also open up new avenues. I don't know what those might be yet. However, given the way that #Twitter's slow demise has led more people to #Mastodon, as well as spurred larger conversations and organizing about what people want #SocialMedia to be and who they want it to be for. Maybe Jezebel's demise will lead more people, particularly #feminists, to consider what we want our online spaces to look like and how we want to reach younger generations. Maybe it will encourage us to reflect on what we wish we would have had when we were younger and spur some creativity to foster that kind of community. Maybe it will cause people to re-evaluate the importance of #writing and text-based platforms online. Who knows? I'm trying to be optimistic, but I also realize this could be another blow to #ReproductiveRights and new coverage online overall. I guess we'll see...
I'm still processing the news that #Jezebel is shutting down. Tbh, part of me is surprised it lasted this long, given the decline of text-based media on the internet and Peter Thiel's attempts to kill #GawkerMedia.
Yes, sometimes it was too snarky and superficial. It wasn't always as #feminist as it claimed, but it had solid coverage of #ReproductiveRights and sometimes it was good for a laugh. Plus, it defined my generation of #Millennial #women, for better or worse, in a way that I'm still trying to understand a decade plus later. I learned a lot from the Jezebel writers over the years, some good lessons and some not-so-good. I wrote a huge paper in graduate school about the cultural significance of #LadyBlogs, including Jezebel, #XOJane, #TheHairpin and other publications that are now long gone. Now I'm left wondering what the cultural significance of Jezebel's demise is. Online media and online spaces are so often ephemeral.
@RollingStone it would be good to look at all the ways the GOP undermines democracy, call it the GOP assault on democracy. In #oregon the gop minority walked out for over 6 weeks effectively killing our short legislative session. Then a voter approved measure that disallows running again because of excessive absenteeism is challenged. I’m sure this is the modus operandi in many states. #orpol #democracy #ohio #reproductiverights #healthcare #abortionrights

I"’m sorry, Amy, this is insulting to insinuate that. It’s not like we all experienced a moment of collective hysteria after the Dobbs decision and all got our periods and got mad temporarily and then forgot that Republicans single-handedly overturned a 50-year-old constitutional right. Yes, voters are still angry about it. Yes, they see through the Republican misinformation. Yes, abortion rights are popular and always have been."

After talking and talking and talking about abortion and "pro-life" this and that for decades, Republicans are desperate now to change the subject when abortion is being discussed.
And the media are eager to help them do that, by inventing false narratives that Americans are over the shock of the Dobbs ruling, and that the "real" subject is "the economy."
We need to ask why the media keep assisting Republicans in this way.

"Reproductive rights turned Ohio and both houses of the Virginia legislature. This is a rebuke to all that whistling-past-the-graveyard talk about how the issue was losing the power it had gained in the wake of the Dobbs decision.

Of course, the #covid denialism has cracks. Sadly, more people are becoming disabled by #LongCovid. More people are dying. #Healthcare workers are burned out.
And beyond #covid19, attacks on #BodilyAutonomy continue. The US lost our one national #AbortionRights protection, paltry as it was, in #RoeVWade. Racist police violence continues. #Eugenics and #genocide continue. #ClimateChange continues.
People are fighting back. #Unions are fighting back and seeing major wins! #ReproductiveRights won in the #USElections last night! Protests across the US calling for a #Ceasefire in Gaza are only gaining momentum and putting pressure on politicians. There is still hope for a better world!
But we need ways to unify these issues and foster greater #solidarity. We need ways to articulate a compelling vision for a better world. We need to not leave behind those who continue to take #covid precautions. I think #BodilyAutonomy is the way forward for that unity and a way to articulate that vision.
Update. First #Ohio #Republicans failed to jack up the difficulty of amending the state constitution. Then (yesterday) they saw a significant majority of Ohio voters (56.6% v. 43.4%) amend the constitution to protect the right to #abortion.

This should be the whole campaign for women's rights/pregnant people's rights. This woman was put in prison for "endangering" a fetus and ended up being told to "sleep it off" when she went into labor, told to "stop screaming" while in labor and eventually gave birth in the prison shower while experiencing a medical crisis that could have led to stillbirth.
The baby lived--and was immediately taken from her.
