These are the same guys who don't want women to vote.
um they are certainly not interested in listening to a female leader of an anti-abortion group i have heard stories from women who tried to join the the abolitionist movement just to be sort of mistreated and shunned like they don't think women are people and so it's not hard to imagine
that they're not incredibly interested in working with women, having conversations, having political conversations with women.
They think that we should be home having babies.
Part of the problem is that for way too long, you know, the mainstream abortion rights movement, mainstream Democratic legislators, they don't take
