Two Supreme Court justices signaled this week that they would allow an extremist administration to use the 151-year-old Comstock Act to ban abortion nationwide. Reproductive freedom—including birth control and IVF—is on every ballot.

@katieporteroc If we give you the House, congress, and the white house promise us that the first thing Congress does is impeach all the Trump-installed SCOTUS and remove them.
@katieporteroc As if the survival of our democracy wasn't enough, the survival of our individual rights is also on the table. You may not like Democrats but they're going to preserve your right to not like them and vote, so everyone needs to vote blue until MAGA is purged from our shores.
Let's have some facts: Comstock Act (1873) - "the act criminalized publication, distribution, and possession of information about or devices or medications for “unlawful” abortion (originally read.."or contraception"..however, that language was removed by Congress in 1971). While this could, in theory, potentially restore legal ramifications for advertisement or transportation across State lines (in States where abortion is "unlawful") - this could - in NO way be used to enact a "Federal Abortion Ban" and has zero implications for IVF.
@katieporteroc @jennycohn1 They are gonna take all women’s rights, aren’t they
@katieporteroc @BillMcFarland18 All women’s health issues are on the ballot. They want to go back to the 50’s.
@katieporteroc Texas and @GovAbbott have shown us that we do not need to listen to SCOTUS.
