[WI State Rep] "Kitchens just made it all that much easier for Evers by making himself the misogynistic face of the bill and saying the quiet part out loud: As far as the forced-birth movement is concerned, women are basically cattle."

Yes folks, women and men who think quite a lot more of women than these people will continue to come out to vote to defend the #FreedmToDecide.

Wisconsin GOP lawmaker says women are basically breeding stock

On Thursday, the Wisconsin State Assembly passed a bill that would put a 14-week abortion ban on April’s election ballot, following a ridiculous debate in which Republican state Rep. Joel Kitchens ...

The #FreedmToDecide will be the number one issue driving many voters to the polls in 2024.

#TheFreedomFromFear and the demand for gun safety legislation will be close behind.

Yup. It's all about the stakes in the election; #FreedmToDecide, #FreedomToVote, #FreedomToLearn, #FreedomtoMarry, #FreedomtoThrive and #DefendDemocracy vs. fascism and deprivation.

"... this does contrast, once again, this idea of freedom versus their extreme policies on this, and they continue to grab that rail. They can’t let it go."

"I can’t say that enough about this binary choice that’s coming. It’s still not a binary choice. It’ll be a binary choice after February."

Talking about the #FreedmToDecide and #Freedoms in general.

2024 will be a choice all right.

When voters find out that Republicans absolutely will ban abortion nationwide if given the chance, including abortion pills (54% of all abortions), they will vote for candidates who will protect the #FreedmToDecide. They will vote for Democrats.

How many Republicans flipped seats in CA in 2022?
Work on every one of those.
There are also 3 vulnerable Senators up for reelection in MT, NV & WI (Manchin is toast and good riddance).
And this year, really important state judge positions are up in PA along with several school board races to oust MAGA book banners. TurnPABlue.org is doing great work & needs vols & $.
Also Virginia needs to hold the state Senate & retake the state Assembly to protect the #FreedmToDecide.

When you know you can't win with clear language that accurately describes exactly what the proposed #FreedmToDecide amendment will do, completely bastardize the summary to not at all reflect the actual text of the amendment.

Republicans seem incapable of accepting the will of the voters if it means they lose.

Backers blast approved ballot language for Ohio's fall abortion amendment as misleading

The Ohio Ballot Board has approved language for a fall abortion measure that Democrats and the issue's backers are criticizing as inaccurate. Ohioans United for Reproductive Rights is considering litigation. Republican Secretary of State Frank LaRose, an abortion opponent, developed the language. It changes the word “fetus” to “unborn child,” and suggests that the amendment would prohibit citizens from limiting abortion access when it would actually limit the government from doing so. Ohio Right to Life's president said he likes the language. The abortion measure will be November's Issue 1. A proposal to legalize recreational marijuana will be Issue 2.

Biden is under water in current polling, but all GOP candidates are under water by much more than Biden.
Then there is actual performance.
People are going back to work in huge numbers month after month.
Inflation is way down, under 3% the last 6 months, under 2% the last 3 months.
Investments in new manufacturing are **way** up, in renewables even more.
Then there's the #FreedmToDecide and #ProtectOurFreedoms in general with big majority support. Biden absolutely can win.
