abortion rights for all women in america in the aftermath of roe versus wade being overturned is a warning sign to all americans right now of what they envision for all women including the most vulnerable among us. on capitol hill, republicans are willing to infringe on a person s right to travel in order to hold up their draconian bans on abortion in republican-led states. on thursday, senate republicans blocked a bill that would make it illegal for governments to punish residents who cross state lines to receive abortion care. one republican senator said the bill would lead to abortion tour tourism. can you imagine? it s a term how divorced republicans really are from the horrible reproductive decisions that women face all across our country each and every day. over in the house, lawmakers voted on a pair of bills today one that would codify the right to an abortion. not one single republican voted for that bill or for that right. another piece of legislation would protec
