The top House Republican said Thursday that Alabama's new state law banning almost all abortions goes too far.
California Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the House minority leader, told reporters that the law, which doesn't allow exceptions for abortions in cases of rape and incest,"goes further than I believe."McCarthy wouldn't take a stand on whether the Supreme Court should strike down the measure, the strictest abortion law in the nation, if a challenge were to reach the court. Opinion polls show widespread opposition to overturning the high court's landmark Roe v.
Republicans struggled to win over suburban women in last year's midterm elections and the controversy over abortion restrictions could prove politically troublesome. Republicans have been on the offensive this year trying to link congressional Democrats to late-term abortion measures pushed by some of the party's most liberal forces in state legislatures such as New York's.
What would he know about reproductive health? He can’t father children in his relationship
Your reproductive health isn't being criminalized murdering your baby is, murder is a crime. Stop the lies.
The act of abortion is reproductive health?
I don't think anyone will arrest you for buying a condom!
So this is reproductive health? Not for the baby!
why is someone who never planned on having a baby making any kind of statement at all? In all fairness there is plenty you dont understand on both sides of the fence. This was just political BS. Wonder what Putin/Kim Jung would think if a GAY president. Just sayin🤔
Couldn't have missed the point any further. I see it having nothing to do with ones health at all. Now in the very few cases where the pregnancy threatens ones life, thats most certainly different. Babies are not hard to adopt. And this issue is more about bad decision making.
ABC = Propaganda Fake News!
It’s pretty wild that folks on either side of the issue have to completely paint this as black and white to get their party’s backing. It’s not always reproductive health and it’s not always murder.
Does Mayor Pete know what reproductive health is? Abortion is NOT reproductive health, constantly saying it is doesn’t make it so.
Sounds great and may rise up in the polls! Mean it! Guys standing up for WOMENS rights are actually more appealing!
America: where we mock Saudis for denying women the right to drive while we deny women the right to life-changing personal healthcare decisions.
St.Pete! Mr. Nevermindmysin because I want to talk about yours!
Being with child is not unhealthy unless it endangers the mothers life.
Alabama made a big mistake and has open a can of worms. It should not pass the lower courts, nor will it be viewed by the Supreme Court if it gets that far because this argument has already been ruled on. Their law is unconstitutional.
killing a growing fetus isn't 'reproductive health,' its the silent genocide
Since when can one conflate “health” with abortion? What a crock of crap coming from a gay man with no (fore)skin in the game!
500 grams is viability idiots on both sides. The follow up questions to politicians are always weak. Where would they draw the line so society can get down to business is and should be the question.
Thank you PeteButtigieg
Agreed
Coat hangers are like 5 for 99 cents
Murder sounds so sanitary when you call it “Reproductive Health”. It’s still the brutal murder of a helpless life. One that should be protected by it’s mother, not have her hire a hitman (abortion doctor) to kill it.
Like Pete Buttguy would ever get a women pregnant.
So then he's okay with killing babies. Gotcha
What is healthy or reproductive about abortion
Freedom is murder
Exactly.
He is so sensible and well spoken.
One word comes to mind ' opportunist '
It's not 'reproductive' health if you aren't reproducing...
The insanity of denying a baby is not a person - their own heartbeat & blood type
It is up to us to change ill informed leaders and undo their mistakes. Now is the time for us to come together with one voice, not in our names.
Please define “reproductive health”. Abortion rights are approx. 0.0001% of it. Liar.
Reproductive health has no business being debated. Its an issue between a women and her doctor. If you are too stupid to grasp the concept there are a number of reasons to have an abortion besides being careless then you need to sit down and shut up. ProChoiceAlways
Let’s be realistic what gays know about reproductive?
Solid response. Unless you're pro-forced-birth. Surprise, they didn't like it.
tell that to the guys paying child support from women forcing them to be dads
This guys a goofball
Abortion is not woman's reproductive health ... no it's not.
Oh, Mayor Pete, you were so cute before you weren’t. Now you are just another want to be just like the good Beto. LOL
Wake up call for people to stop fucking around....
We haven’t been “free” for a long time
Even if 20 States banned abortion it would still be legal in the other 30. That's how America was founded. So that each State could vote on it's own laws.
“Reproductive health” is quite a euphemism for ripping a baby apart limb by limb and crushing its skull.
If you dont want to have a baby...dont have sex. It's not rocket science people.
These issues are uncomfortable but we need to discuss them
you are not free
