Ted Cruz tries to hide the GOP IVF ban in a load of BS. Can your BS-Meter spot it?
How good is your BS-Meter? Can it spot the GOP’s IVF ban hidden in a load of BS by a Harvard lawyer?
“The GOP is scared. They’re afraid of how angry voters are over abortion bans and terrified that their extremism will finally do them in. Republican lawmakers will do anything to prevent that from happening, including lying to voters about one of the most personal decisions families make—when and how to have children.” — Abortion, Every Day by Jessica Valenti
Test your BS Meter with this quiz. How quickly can you spot the IVF BAN that Ted Cruz has buried in his bill?
Republicans Ban IVF
“Republicans are pretending to offer protections for IVF, they’re gaslighting Americans about the real threat they pose to fertility treatments. They need voters to think that the Alabama ruling—dangerous in all sorts of ways—is just a run-of-the-mill decision that would have had no impact on IVF if not for those pesky activists. That’s because they don’t want Americans to realize that the issue at the heart of that ruling, fetal personhood, is one we’re going to see a lot more of—and one that will change not just women’s healthcare, but our legal personhood.
If Republicans were genuinely interested in protecting fertility treatments, they would have signed on to the numerous Democratic bills designed to actually safeguard IVF—like the Access to Family Building Act from Sen. Tammy Duckworth.”
Elections have consequences
“The Alabama Supreme Court ruled that frozen embryos are people and someone can be held liable for destroying them, a decision that reproductive rights advocates say could imperil in vitro fertilization (IVF) and affect the hundreds of thousands of patients who depend on treatments like it each year. After the fall of Roe, a near-total abortion ban went into effect in the state. Alabama now accounts for nearly half of all criminal cases related to pregnancy across the country, according to a tally by Pregnancy Justice.” — Washington Post
TakeAway: Elections have consequences. You lose your freedoms and IVF. Hold Republicans accountable for taking away your RIGHT TO PARENT with IVF. Vote for President Biden and Democrats.
