Republicans Will Take Away Your Rights

When Clarance Thomas wrote his opinion after overturning Roe v. Wade, he said “We should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold (which legalized Birth Control), Lawrence (which invalidated sodomy laws), and Obergefell (which legalized same-sex marriage). Because any substantive due process decision is “demonstrably erroneous,” we have a duty to “correct the error” established in those precedents.

Take control of your future before Republicans ban family planning. Vote.
