Summary
Abortion rights measures succeeded in seven states, though Florida’s proposal fell short of its 60% threshold. But with Donald Trump set for a second term and Republicans likely to control Congress, his administration will likely restrict access nationwide.
Trump may also restrict access via federal agencies, targeting abortion drugs, contraception, and enforcing the Comstock Act against mailing abortion-related materials.
His judicial appointments could further limit reproductive rights.
Women should prepare for these restrictions by considering sterilization, long-acting birth control, and purchasing emergency contraception and abortion pills in advance.
Absolutely. But didn’t ya hear? Abortion rights are now also identity politics. So running on protecting them isn’t okay and is running on identity politics, but running on restricting them or banning them isn’t running on identity politics as long as you lie about your true goal.
Anyone who didn’t vote for Harris but would have if one reason or another was different and who will soon lose their right to an abortion nationwide, if we have a next time you better fucking vote so shit like what’s about to happen doesn’t happen again/continue to happen.
