   For many people, reproductive rights feel like a non-issue because they would never think about having an abortion. But even if you are actively trying to expand your family, abortion bans passed by Republican-dominated legislatures across the country could affect you and your family.

   That is because the reach of these invasive, oppressive laws goes far beyond abortion. We explore why that is today in The Big Picture: https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/strict-abortion-laws-affect-miscarriage

     @georgetakei also, you know, even if it doesn’t affect you directly you can always choose to care about other people.

     @georgetakei - Abortion is health care, which should be a basic human right.

     @georgetakei to me it was never about what you intend to do, have kids or not have kids. it's about bodily autonomy.
