The Republican War on Women Visual Cavalcade (and kids too) - Dial up Warning

Thirty-two Arizona state legislators received hand-knit, googley-eyed stuffed uteruses from a pro-choice activist yesterday, the Arizona Republic reports.

Each uturus toy was stuffed into a clear plastic bag, along with a letter from Peggy Tinsley, who spearheaded the project, explaining why she opposes a bill that would limit birth control coverage in the state.

“Please treat the women in your life as the intelligent persons they are,” Tinsley wrote. “I have provided you with a uterus. Please leave ours alone.”






“There is no reason that it should be any different this time,” Murray said of the need for all lawmakers to get behind the Democratic bill.

But Democrats want to expand the original law to include provisions that seem to invite opposition from Republicans. Their bill would increase the number of visas available to victims of domestic violence who are undocumented immigrants; ban discrimination against gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender victims of domestic violence; and give more authority to Native American tribes to address domestic violence.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) disputed that those additions were aimed at making Republicans take a politically uncomfortable vote — and potentially go on record opposing a bill focused on protecting women from violence.
