Deplorable fascist trash the lot of them

Who were the three who voted yes and the three who didnt vote?

Are people allowed to move to another state or are they in the process of blocking that too?

Conservatism is a fucking disease.

That's odd, I would have thought that they would vote for states' rights out federal government oversight.

I'm honestly shocked that there were 3 of them that voted in favor

I assume Kinzinger is one. Who are the other 2?

Republican politicians/legislators remind me when an invasive species wrecks havoc on an ecosystem without contributing anything of value to it. Like... it's not nature or evolution. It's the result of bullshit.

They are. They are voting for the right of states to trap their citizens. <_<

Extraterritorial jurisdiction is "sacred" for some reason.

Pure evil scum.

Am I still fearmongering?

And obviously they'll vote against this. They want to ban abortion outright because they erroneously frame it as the brutal murder of a baby.

...did it pass anyway?

But also voting that some states should have more rights than others...

Yes. Even if your neck was in a guillotine, youd be fearmongering if you said they were trying to decapitate you. Obviously they are just trying to scare you a little.

That those 'state rights' I keep hearing so much about?

Well I'm glad the democrats outnumber them because holy shit.

Does it matter when the senate requires 60 votes?

Bunch of fucking idiots. Cry about freedom then votes against freedom.

It sure is strange how the people who are supposedly for "small government" want the government to be able to prevent a woman from traveling to another state for an abortion if they happen to live in a GOP hellhole that's outlawed it.

It's never actually been about freedom, just about the ability to do what they want

that's just good marketing.

The freedom to do exactly what they want.

Missouri women are obviously coming to Illinois to see the world's largest ketchup bottle... then, I mean, since they're already there...

But I thought the right was about freedoms? That trucker convoy should start up again and fight the fact that the government wants to restrict the freedom to travel.

This is the same sort of mentality as punishing sex tourism.

Give it 5 minutes and they'll start telling us how motor vehicles and interstate travel aren't explicitly mentioned in the Constitution.

Having right-wing sociopolitical views is a huge red flag at this point.

It's apparently not big obtrusive government if you delegate it to the states or claim that you're "protecting da kids"

Never underestimate the value of "think of the children!" for instituting bullshittery.

just like everything else they "believe in", that only applies when it benefits them.

If you live in [place A], and go to [place B] to do [thing], there is no justifiable reason for [place A] to ever be the jurisdiction that files charges for [thing].

that's fucked.

but even with that ruling, you know anti-choice states are going to try to implement some kind of roadblocks to prevent people from exercising their reproductive choice in other places.

No idea why they'd vote for that when they're constantly fleeing their states with their daughters and mistresses to get abortions anyways. I wonder what life is gonna be like for them once they realize they have fresh faces for the leopards they keep on voting for?

I won't get too graphic since I'm on thin ice, but I bet they'd change their tune if a rape pregnancy hit close to home.

Anyone who agrees with banning abortion is an enemy of humanity and all that is good. I think of them worse than they think of "abortionists"

They'll gladly leave the state and get abortions for their family or mistress. They genuinely do not care about the hypocrisy and would not support changes for anyone else

nah, theyd just cover it up and keep singing the same tune. Same way they have for the last few decades every time they get a mistress pregnant

Next: Citizens are banned from moving out of the country if proven they are intending to get an abortion, marry the same sex, transition genders or partake in non-martial sex.

Yes, they can and have done this. They will still get abortions in secret once their personal life is affected in some way.

Just remember, a lot of even more evil shit will be hitting the Supreme Court's desks in October, they're gonna be really busy chopping up rights for women, minorities, LGBT nd and states that don't vibe with their alt right corrupted version of Christianity .
