How will your state react?




Over 20 states are going to ban it if it falls.

Do you have a list? Or is this speculation?

Honestly it might be an issue we move to get away from, so I'd like the heads up.

My state isn't a massive c word so abortion will remain legal here

I do not receive notifications, so using the @ feature will not do anything. I might see your post and respond though if I have already been in the topic.

Some states already have abortion bans in their books. While those laws continue to exist, they can't be upheld due to the SC's ruling on Roe v. Wade. If the SC reverses that ruling, then those existing laws will immediately go into effect again. Just because the SC rules against something doesn't mean existing laws get erased from the books. That's something that occurs on a state government level.

We elected a Trump supporter, so it's likely that women will be banned from freedom once RvW is overturned.

Good thing Democrats keep telling me we can't get all doom and gloom just because we lose a few fights to the Republicans.

Ohio, definitely
Theyre already trying to make it as functionally impossible as they can. This just makes it more cut and dry.

The Wisconsin state legislature already passed such a bill making it illegal in almost every situation. The governor, who will likely be out the door next year, vetoed it. It'll probably be fully banned here in 2023

If it's any consolation, Republican politicians are beholden to corporate interests, not religious dogma. These religious "values" are just a front to maintain support with their (incredibly shortsighted) voter base. If curbing or outright banning any of our freedoms would have a negative impact on corporate America, the GOP won't bother. They've caved to corporate action time and time again.

Everybody should absolutely get out and vote, but you can't put your faith in the democratic process alone. You need to put pressure on corporations as well. Make it clear that you plan to boycott businesses that don't affirm our civil liberties. There's a reason the GOP constantly harps on issues like "cancel culture" and boycotts. It's one of the strongest weapons American citizens can wield against them.

Massachusetts. Here, we believe in healthcare, science, and know that women are equal human beings. So we will keep abortion here.

Live in Chicago, moving back to CA (Bay Area) in a few weeks. Safe either way. Feel bad for a lot of the rest of the country though.
