Nearly two years after Texas' six-week abortion ban, more infants are dying - lemm.ee

Some 2,200 infants died in Texas in 2022 – an increase of 227 deaths, or 11.5%, over the previous year, according to preliminary infant mortality data from the Texas Department of State Health Services that CNN obtained through a public records request. Infant deaths caused by severe genetic and birth defects rose by 21.6%. That spike reversed a nearly decade-long decline. Between 2014 and 2021, infant deaths had fallen by nearly 15%.

I feel like the focus should now be finding ways to treat babies and children with genetic defects and whatnot, not letting people kill them again.

But hey, that makes me cruel, mean, and a crusader of death, I hear.

It does because you want to force women to give birth against their will.

We don’t do slavery anymore.

No no, we do, just only for prisoners. Everything else is just sparkling servitude.
