Republicans have consistently pushed for national restrictions on abortion, including former President Donald Trump himself. The 2024 election could give them the opportunity.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, an outspoken abortion-rights opponent who faces a competitive re-election bid, said abortion rights aren’t in danger at the federal level because the 60-vote filibuster rule will give Democrats the power to block anti-abortion-rights bills in Congress.
Let the voters vote on this and talk about it. And debate it. And vote again, if they want to,” Hawley said. “I support a 15-week ban, but that’s not going to pass.”
Yeah so these numbnuts are saying that they rely on Democrats to be smart and reasonable so that they are free to hold their batshit stance.
Dear southern neighbours, please elect reasonable people to the US House and Senate. Thanks and with love, Canadians.
They’re trying to lull uninformed voters into a false sense of security. It only takes a majority of the Senate to remove the filibuster, so a Republican-majority Senate could absolutely impose a nationwide abortion ban after ditching the filibuster.

From Oklahoma, some of us try, but we are overrun with crazies.
