Isn’t this how Muslims take over a country by suppressing women’s rights. Get rid of men that have voted this in. No one has the right to dictate to the opposite sex.

'There was a a shamefully complete news blackout of the protests outside the Conservatives conference. Well thats a surprise...NOT! History is repeating itself in this country. Read about Germany and Hitler...then tell me it could never happen here.' The Boris Channel again...

It’s maddening that GregAbbott_TX sees himself and TexasGOP as being above the set rights of women. It essentially means that they think they can act beyond US law. That’s not how it works. This is a stop-gap measure. The real showdown comes later. SaveWomensRights
