GOP Move to Enslave US Women = Jihad

The GOP Takes Its War on Women to the States
People for the American Way: "In 1992, the Supreme Court, in Planned Parenthood v. Casey, upheld women's constitutional right to abortion services, but allowed certain leeway in placing restrictions on access to reproductive healthcare. Since then, right-wing politicians have increasingly pushed through state laws meant to chip away at the right to choose and undermine the protections of Roe v. Wade. These state-level draconian proposals are intended to cripple the ability of women to access reproductive health services. Burdensome waiting periods and parental notification requirements have been passed throughout the country, and now anti-choice activists are increasingly turning to new ways to undercut women's healthcare and constitutionally protected liberties. Not only are radical state legislators threatening the ability of women to gain access to reproductive health services, but they are also testing the boundaries of both Roe and Casey."
