People with vaginas - get your tubes tied if you can. I got mine tied a few years ago and recovery was only a few days with minimal pain. Insurance covered it. I’d rather never have children than die from trying.
The bill summary states that, if passed, Missouri would create a registry of every expecting mother in the state “who is at risk for seeking an abortion” starting July 1, 2026.
This is incredibly dystopian and taking page right out of Romania’s hated dictator Ceaușescu in 1966. With Decree 770 it, as well as making any kind of birth control illegal also did the following on the population of Romania:
“To enforce the decree, society was strictly controlled. Contraceptives were removed from sale and all women were required to be monitored monthly by a gynecologist.[3]: 6 [better source needed] Any detected pregnancies were followed until birth. The secret police kept a close eye on hospital procedures.”
The whole reason I’m conservative is because of my distrust of government. I can’t understand why an Orwellian position of tracking pregnant women would be popular to anyone with conservative values. Even under the guise of protecting babies this is disgusting.
Hopefully you no longer consider yourself a “conservative” because that party left you behind over a decade ago.
And lied about their fiscal conservatism since day one.
And part of the reason I’m pro government assistance is that they pull this shit regardless so it may as well help some people sometimes
