The MOMS Act even impacts women in states without abortion bans. First, it treats an embryo or fetus as a living child and threatens the future of IVF, just like the Life at Conception Act – which my opponent Mike Simpson co-sponsored.
And if a woman tells her doctor that they’re unsure about starting a family, doctors will be required to direct them to crisis pregnancy centers where staff are trained to talk women out of having an abortion.
I can only speak for myself, but it sure seems like we’re getting closer to The Handmaid’s Tale.
This election might be our last chance to stop it from getting worse, and to reverse Republicans’ assault on our freedoms and our democracy.
It’s up to us to decide the course of history this year. Thanks for being in this fight with me.
