The Future of Roe V. Wade: Women’s Choice Election 2022
The Republican-stacked Supreme Court poised to trash Roe v. Wade.
EVERY non-voting woman and man who supports Reproductive Choice MUST know that we are:
- “JUST. 2. MORE” Senators away from passing “The Women’s Health Protection Act” which will OVERRULE The Supreme Court, and the upcoming SCOTUS decision.
- “JUST. 2. MORE” to create a carve-out to the stupid filibuster rule and allow 50 Senators and Vice President Harris to CODIFY “Roe v. Wade” protections into Federal Law. – Richard Greene

Background
- Republicans have packed the courts with ultra-conservative activist judges. Trump and the Republican Senate have confirmed an astonishing 218 federal judges , mostly conservative white men , many of them deeply unqualified far-right activists with little judicial experience. – WA Monthly
- “Republicans have stocked the federal bench at all levels with conservatives who share the right’s support for whacking at the wall between church and state and at the powers of federal regulatory agencies, banning abortion and expanding gun rights.” – Time
- FBI facing allegation that its 2018 background check of Brett Kavanaugh was ‘fake’. – The Guardian
- “The Women’s Health Protection Act” easily passed The House of Representatives in September, 2021 with 218 DEMOCRATS voting FOR and no REPUBLICANS voting FOR it.
- Voters need to know that – YES – there IS a difference between the parties! – Richard Greene
TakeAway: 2022 is the Women’s Choice Election. Hold politicians accountable.
