I'm afraid that Amy Coney Barrett (to paraphrase someone I can't find the quote for) will, after walking through doors opened for her will turn and close them against others. Taking away healthcare is a big deal to a lot of people even if it's nothing more than a source of amusement to you. Perhaps you have healthcare and don't know what it's like not to have it; if so then you speak from a place of privilege. But that's not all that's concerning.

Barrett cast the deciding vote to deport a legal resident of the United States who had lived here for 30 years because of a legal technicality. And she voted to uphold a Trump administration rule that a green card can be withheld from anyone who the government thinks might rely on public assistance.

did you ever wonder why the democrats don't offer health care without abortion?
would you like to see health care without abortion?

Did you ever wonder why the Republicans don't offer health care for everyone?
Would you like to see healthcare for everyone?

a game changer
A is for Amy
a focus for the election. The courts have been used by the Democrats to make changes that couldn't be legislated. Abortion. Same sex marriage. LGBT. Today their so called affordable health care, which includes contraception, abortion, and genderism, is being threatened by the very same courts. Free speech and religious liberty are on the line. Freedom itself is at stake.

The Title Of Your Article Below From The Very Liberal (The Daily Beast)

It's soon to be a 6/3 Conservative US Supreme Court, you bet Roe V. Wade (Abortion) and Obergefell V. Hodges (Same Sex Marriage) are going to be repealed, right along with pushing homosexuality in public school curriculum on k-8 school children.

I have been waiting for decades to see this moment, I can't wait, the shoe is now on the other foot, how's it feel?

their so called affordable health care

We need universal health care coverage, not a pResident who says insulin is "so cheap it's like water." (Hint: it's still too expensive.) You said you'd like to see universal health care (but apparently aren't willing to have it include contraception). Federal money doesn't pay for abortions, so why not allow women access to contraception? Because it always comes back to control.

Is there anything you can take care of without relying on the state?

Is this about me?

No.

So quit trying to make it about me.

If you want fewer abortions, make contraception free and accessible. If you don't want to do that, then all you're about is control.

a court decision
A Law Without Order
a life in the balance. A basic right. Babies are left on the table to die alone because they somehow survived a botched abortion. This is what the courts have done for us. If they cannot protect life, what can they protect? Marriage? No. Family? No. Two guys living together? Yes.

Facts:
https://www.factcheck.org/2019/03/th...-alive-debate/

In 2002, the “Born-Alive Infants Protection Act” easily passed Congress — through a voice vote in the House and unanimous consent in the Senate. It became law on Aug. 5, 2002. It defined a “person” (or “human being,” “child” and “individual”) for the purposes of any act of Congress or any agency ruling/regulation as “every infant member of the species homo sapiens who is born alive at any stage of development.“

The act went on to define “born alive” as: “the complete expulsion or extraction from his or her mother of that member, at any stage of development, who after such expulsion or extraction breathes or has a beating heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord, or definite movement of voluntary muscles, regardless of whether the umbilical cord has been cut, and regardless of whether the expulsion or extraction occurs as a result of natural or induced labor, cesarean section, or induced abortion.”

Are either of these laws necessary to prosecute the intentional killing of a baby as a homicide?

No. Killing a baby is a homicide. “States can and do punish people for killing children who are born alive,” Mary Ziegler, a professor at Florida State University’s College of Law and the author of two books on the abortion debate, told us in a phone interview. “Most criminal laws are at the state level not the federal level.”​
