SB1 has me so seething with rage that I can hardly think straight, but I can't let this go without comment here since it is so important and so close to my heart right now. I am limited to communicating in angry snippets, lest my blood pressure go through the roof, so I will leave it to Representative Jessica Farrar and the American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists to put eloquently what I am currently unable to.
Rep Farrar's closing comments
Open Letter to Texas Legislators from ACOG
Remember this anger when it comes time to vote. The Texas Legislature is not looking out for your best interests. In their arrogance, they are proclaiming to know more about women's healthcare than medical professionals. They are passing laws that 80% of Texans oppose. They are stubbornly refusing amendments that would reduce the already vast amount of suffering that is in store for the women and children of Texas. They are dooming women to agony and death, and babies with abnormalities to short lives filled with pain. If you identify as pro-life you should still be enraged by the lack of logic and the abuse of power. It's disgusting.
