      They know that their wealthy supporters will Always be able to obtain Any procedures up to and including safe abortions, and that the rest are simply too deluded to do anything but vote (R) because that’s what their parents and grandparents……. did.

      Excellent job guys. This was nearly as stupid as your continuing to threaten to shut down the government a month before the election

      Maybe Schumer should introduce an bill to codify universal reproductive rights into law again in the Senate, since the republicans won’t be able to help themselves in voting against it

      Can someone here give one or more examples of republicans voting in favor of a bill that majority of Americans support?

      They just need to act normal a little bit longer, keep things just like they are a little bit longer, pay lip service oh yes we like the IVF very much, get the presidency and THEN go ham on all the fascist shit they have planned, like a nationwide ban on abortion, IVF, and the morning after pill. They’re stalling for time.

      “I have been a leader on IVF, which is fertilization. When they got a very negative decision on IVF from the Alabama courts, I saw the people of Alabama and the legislature two days later voted it in. I’ve been a leader on it. They know that and everybody else knows it.”

      Gaslight. Obstruct. Project.

      Typical GOPpy-ass shit. Yeah, they’ll kick your crippled dog while they spit on it too. Nothing new to see here from the party of family values.

      Just another reason to vote these christofascists out of office in November. Remember to register to vote if you aren’t already and make sure to check you’re eligible to vote if you are.

      Why the fuck are they against IVF? I’m gonna have to google it because this is a high point in stupidity.

      Because god? Fuck! If that’s the case, why is Viagra and Cialis legal?

      This is where the Kamala campaign releases a statement saying “Donald Trump said at the debate last week that he’s for IVF. His party just voted against IVF access. Are Republicans for it or against it? We think voters have a right to know the answer before casting their votes.”

      When all else fails quote War Pigs:

      Politicians hide themselves away
      They only started the war
      Why should they go out to fight?
      They leave that all to the poor
      Time will tell on their power minds
      Making war just for fun
      Treating people just like pawns in chess
      Wait till their judgment day comes

      Hey independents, moderates and other “undecided” voters.

      This tipping the needle yet? This seems pretty BIG Government to me…

      The GOP isn’t going to willing pass anything before the election. They want to use this as fodder to say that nothing gets done under Biden/Harris

      Keep doing this Democrats. Keep trying to pass bills that donald Trump with a little d, and his Republican buddies are supposedly for. Let them vote against it, and show everyone the truth.

    21. F0KK0F on

      I’m super confused how Dems hold a majority in Senate w VP Kamala but there were 51 votes against. What am I missing?!

      it takes 60 votes for something blah blah blah

      ah democracy

      Did Senator Scott from Florida vote against this? His campaign ads say he is all for IVF and his daughter is going through this.

    24. she_is_the_slayer on

      I went today to watch this vote in person. I aim to start IVF September 23rd. Everyone who voted to block this is on my forever shit list.

      more cost-accessible IVF treatment is unironically a huge deal for me this election. my wife and I have been trying for about a year for our first without success and we are beginning to talk about it. we’re both mid thirties and time is not our friend. we have tossed the idea of IVF around but the idea of paying $15k for something that isn’t a sure thing is deterring us from seriously considering it. We don’t have the disposable income for what potentially could be $30-45k of expenses.

      What mental gymnastics are they even using to justify that? This is just them being contrarian assholes.

    32. trustedsauces on

      Let’s have them vote every week until the election. Maybe they will change their minds.

      Or better yet, change the minds of republican voters.
