The students were surprised to learn about legal restrictions to abortion access in D.C., which is widely considered an abortion safe haven, but has been victimized by conservative meddling and racist control of the District’s government.
Decades of corporate greed have caused real, verifiable harm to the environment; attempting to shift the blame from the negligent corporations responsible for this damage to individuals and prescribers makes it clear that Students for Life’s concern isn’t the environment, but their own violent agenda.
The truth is that even those who claim to be opposed to punishing people who have abortions are working towards a future where that punishment is increasingly common
On August 29, seven Reproaction activists met at the Boone County Courthouse in Columbia, Missouri, for a visibility action. We united as a part of Reproaction’s Stop Prosecuting Abortion campaign, which exposes the logical consequence of abortion bans: sending people to jail for their pregnancy outcomes.
As we ran out of our flyers holding Congressman Wright and Congressman King responsible at Capitol Hill, we had many folks thanking us for being there and standing against the prosecution of abortion.
Over 20 activists attended our action, and several people walking by also joined in and stopped to take photos with our Stop Prosecuting Abortion signs to show their support. We even had volunteers who brought a maraca and a drum to help drown out the ‘pro-life’ hypocrisy.
