Pelosi has inspired me, here. I’m planning to contact my favorite member of Congress, Steve King of Iowa, to propose an “Unborn Victims of Congress Act.” This would prohibit members of Congress from passing legislation that would benefit them directly and passing off the cost to future generations who would not benefit from programs that surely, to borrow the language of Roe, will not remain “viable.”
"Instead of undermining women’s rights, Congress should pass the Freedom of Choice Act, a bill introduced this week by Congressman Jerry Nadler and Senator Barbara Boxer that would protect a woman’s freedom of choice. We must also take a more comprehensive approach to reproductive health care by planning for healthy families, providing information about women’s health care options, and preventing unintended pregnancies through access to contraception. And we must continue to protect a woman’s right to choose."
Again, Nancy has inspired me. I believe Congress should act now to pass the National Freedom of Health Care Choice Act. The entire text of the act, which I just wrote five minutes ago, follows: "This Act declares that it is the policy of the United States that every woman has the fundamental right to choose a health care plan; terminate a health care plan prior to inviability; or terminate a health care plan after inviability when necessary to protect her life or her health."
If things don’t change in this country women may be forced to seek back alley doctors in order to preserve their fundamental right to make important health care decisions. And we may need to consider late term abortions for some members of Congress.
