circumstances of the pregnancy. okay. so how do those thoughts sit with you? well, i just think it s completely disingenuous for politicians to claim they care about women s health and then m mississippi is the state banning abortion. that s the case before the court, and mississippi completely fails to provide the support that pregnant and parenting people need to thrive. it is the only state that doesn t have any equal pay law. it doesn t have laws that ensure people can have paid family leave. it has no reasonable protections for people who are pregnant in the workplace. and it has one of the worst gender gaps in the country, and it is the state with the highest infant mortality rate. so to say they want to help women and families and they re going to have those protections in place is just a lie. those protections don t exist.
