Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI volunteer to drive truckloads of Plan B into Texas (a la Smokey and the Bandit- style).
Sorry if that subject line was too much, but we've got to be ready to set up Underground highways and means to get patients out of the state and/or medicines into the state.
I have volunteered to be an escort at the clinic before during protests and I will volunteer to the cause to take meds in or people out. If you live near Texas would you be willing to help?
We have to establish a Resistance inside the state of texas. If you don't live near texas, don't worry the American Taliban has their sights set on your state too.
(this is like my 5th edit in order to keep it somewhat civil/legal/safe on my part)
I am pissed and I will forever be an ally.

The women of Texas need to vote out every goddamn repuke next election for taking away their reproductive freedoms.

I suppose there could be women in Afghanistan who support the Taliban. But I know there are plenty of women who support what's happening in Texas right now.
Reproductive control has been the reality for non-white women in this country for centuries. Just because it's happening to white women now doesn't mean we have to look abroad to find words to describe it. It's radical evangelical American Christian white supremacy.

Some of us also tell them they are all going to hell.

When I return to Texas I will support the Freedom of choice in any way I can from providing transportation, protection to facilities and providers, safe housing etc..
Until then I can only provide moral support and financial support.
