California preps to be a haven for abortion rights

"California abortion rights groups, providers and Democratic lawmakers are all getting ready for a potential influx of out-of-state women. In June, the U.S. Supreme Court is expected to dramatically scale back, or even end, the constitutional right to abortion."

https://calmatters.org/politics/2022/04/california-abortion-rights/

"California abortion clinics are building new facilities closer to transit hubs and training more staff. A package of a dozen abortion rights bills moving through the Legislature could expand the number of providers, provide financial assistance to women traveling to California to terminate their pregnancies, and legally protect the doctors who treat them."

"As new restrictions rapidly sweep the country in anticipation of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling this summer that may dramatically scale back or even end the constitutional right to abortion, California is preparing to step into the void — and welcome a possible surge of patients losing access in dozens of other states. That scenario seems more likely after Politico published a draft majority opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade."

I can't go through arguing with idiots again. Clearly recalling how heated those discussions became 50 damn years ago, here's yet another regurgitated morsel of agony vomited up by the Robert's court.
Trump made certain we all must live with his own and his constituents stupidity and UN-equinamity the rest of our boomergen lives.
I really thought we were so long past this.
So many years and sweat activism plundered by churchy fools overwhelmed by the simplest physics concept breakdown possible-- I'm not kidding- several examples of those who shook their heads and ELECT to remain ignorant. 😅 I just stop and say... well, you asked "I don't know how..."

😨 But they still vote.
