archcove.bsky.social5The GOP has held a veto-proof supermajority in Missouri for 14 years. They rule with impunity - ignoring or endlessly stalling anything that conflicts with their far right-wing views. They've gerrymandered the districts to ensure they remain in power. Democracy is on life support in this state.
Two years ago voters in Missouri overturned a near-total abortion ban enacted by the GOP-dominated legislature. Now the party is pushing a new ballot initiative to repeal abortion rights, linking it to anti-trans sentiment. / by @jeremykohler.bsky.social www.propublica.org/article/miss...

Eddie Hill1saw billboards on 70 in St Charles yesterday saying vote for 3 to ban men in women's sports. so they're clearly leaning into this. i guess good news is they're learning their anti-choice stance is toxic

Missouri Republicans Are Trying to Repeal Abortion Rights by Leaning Into Anti-Trans Sentiment Two years after falsely linking reproductive rights to gender transition care for minors, GOP lawmakers have packaged the two issues into one amendment in an effort to strip away the right to abortion.
Amber48At this point I'm comfortable in saying that trans women are doing more to fight on the front lines against the patriarchy / misogyny than the majority of cis women. Y'all have sit back and lost a half-century of gender rights. We're doing our damnedest to fight back.
caïo la 🌱2wow, who could have predicted this, other than literally every trans person who has been saying this for the past four years
