No, they mean providing easy access to healthcare and preventative measures so women don't need to get an abortion, not make it illegal and pretend you've solved the problem.

Pregnancy is inherently a life threatening condition. That is not an exaggeration. Many women - myself included - would choose suicide over pregnancy. I’m fortunate enough to have gotten approved for sterilization, but many women’t don’t have insurance or won’t get approved. Treating birth control and abortion access like healthcare is the way forward

Access to safe and sound healthcare lowers the rate of abortions. Deny that care, and abortions go up (along with complications therein). Supplementally, good sex education helps decrease teen pregnancies.

The same moral panics bear the same regressive results, and people needlessly suffer as a result. We need to embrace science, not Bibles.

Rare is a difficult goal to achieve. 1. We have a rampant rape problem. Agree or not it does exist and women are punished for reporting rape. 2. Birth control does fail. It can be extremely reliable but it is not 100%. The best you can do is make the morning after pill easily accessible and affordable but unfortunately not every will know their form of birth control has failed for 6-8 weeks at the earliest. Not everyone has reliable menstrual cycles. It seems like it should be an easy to avoid pregnancy but the only way to do that is abstinence. Abstinence is just not a realistic solution because even married people can have an unwanted pregnancy. At the end of the day this is a private decision that has many factors including health, finances, support structures and no one especially a government should be forcing women to give birth. If our society truly wanted to be pro life we should start with the society children live in today. Gun violence kills 22 children every day in the USA. We have weak support structures for women when it comes to health care accessibility and child care. Finally we have an education system that is under attack. I think you need to understand people of child bearing age are looking at their future and it really is not a good time to have children.

There are times when you really do need to turn up the volume, tho.

Personally, I appreciated the yelling- to make sure that the people in the back got the message.

I also don’t see anything wrong with posting it in every state’s subreddit. Due to gerrymandering and voter suppression efforts, too many state legislatures are Red and don’t truly represent the will of the people who will be forced to live under the laws they create. The crazies are working hard right now to stomp on every single one of our rights. Oh no, wait- except the right to own and carry around weapons which are capable of killing dozens of our fellow citizens in less than a minute.

Here in PA, they are busy bickering over whether to put some questions on the ballot about changing our Constitution- including raising the voting age to 21. I’m guessing that they have done research that shows it’s those pesky young people voting Blue, so they’re trying to take away their right to vote any way they can. What’s more, they want the questions to be on the ballot in the May Primary, an election that’s has notoriously low turnout- except for old folks- especially in a year where we don’t vote for President.

Please, people- VOTE. In. Every. Single. Election.

ah, yes, super lax, especially when in some states you have to carry a dead fetus to term and risk dying because of it!

Foundational freedoms? I don't see them in the bill of rights or the Magna Carta.

Mkay got it. So no pro life dog catchers.

There are trivial offices people might compare to “dogcatcher.”

Township Auditors and Tax Collectors often have the duty of simply signing a piece of paper, so that a professional firm may do the auditing or tax collecting.

The OP is correct that it is worthwhile to oppose folks running for those offices (the first job is to recruit a better candidate, or to step forward yourself). These offices can be stepping stones to “policy offices.”

Also consider school board races. Alice or Bob might be active in the PTA, but if they're going to ban books about reproductive health…

No. Animal control is usually under professional services. The borough appoints someone to handle that. In the smaller towns there’s usually one person or company that covers a large area.

OP just posted the exact same post in every state subreddit. I've never seen a race for dog catcher in PA.
