13 seconds.
That’s
all it took for the GOP to end a special session called by Governor
Evers meant to remove a law dating back to 1849 outlawing abortion in
all but the most extreme circumstances from our books.
Let
me repeat that, 13
seconds. No debate, no vote. Simply the
banging of a gavel.
This
is the kind of extremism that Democrats throughout the state are up
against this year.
The
Republican Party has gone so far right that it now wants to strip even
the most basic medical protections away from thousands of Wisconsinites
should the U.S. Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade.
They
have to be stopped. And they have to be stopped in 2022.
But
I need your help to hold the line. Should we lose just one seat in the
State Senate this November, the GOP will be able to override the
Governor’s veto power. That means his ability to stop further draconian
legislation would be eliminated. This cannot happen.
