Okay Wendy Davis, a state senator of Fort Worth, Tx, is filibustering a new bill against Abortion in Texas. You can watch it live right HERE . It is restrictive. The bill says that a woman can not get an abortion past 20 weeks of pregnancy and all abortions have to be done at a surgical clinic. That affects 47 of the 52 clinic in Texas.
I am against Abortion but I think like all things wrong that is a human choice to do so. God gave us Free will to right and wrong. It's not for me to judge a woman who decides what to do with her body. So yes, I support Wendy Davis!!! This bill will push many women to go back to the back alleys to get this procedure. Most Surgical Clinics that perform abortions only do it in serious medical cases. For example if the mother is dying, they will remove the baby. Also with only 5 clinics being open (if this bill passes), it limits safe locations for women to do so. This bill does not make women choose other options. It makes them desperate. There was a lawmaker calling doctors who perform abortions, "Bottom Feeders". If this bill passes, lawmakers are giving the real bottom feeders (those that perform abortions illegally) some real business.
I rather a woman give a baby up for adoption, if she chooses not to raise a child for whatever reason. But since abortion is legal, I'd rather a woman be a safe as possible having one. This bill limits her safety.
Go Wendy!!!
As Always, Talking to You in Adult Terms
UPDATE!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Filibuster failed but Wendy Davis is still a She-Ro!!!. The Bill died even after the Republicans steam rolled a vote after Midnight. Oh the gallery was loud & livid and that is what cause the vote not to be heard. Gov. Perry had requested a 2nd Special Session. So, the fight is back on soon. #KilltheBill #YayWendy #IStandwithWendy
