Non-Detroit-specific post. Sue me.
Today is just one facepalm after another, folks…
The U.S. Supreme Court in June 2022 ruled abortion laws must be left up to the states, overturning a half-century of federal abortion protections and spurring Michigan voters to approve Proposal 3 in the November 2022 general election, adding the right of a woman to terminate a pregnancy to Michigan’s constitution.
In a statement Wednesday, Stacey LaRouche, [Gov. Gretchen] Whitmer’s press secretary, said the governor would work to defeat the lawsuit.
“It shouldn’t be lost on people that these right-wing organizations and radical Republicans in the Michigan Legislature are cherry picking courts to try to once again overturn a constitutionally guaranteed right because they can’t win with voters,” LaRouche said.
Of course they did, because it’s not about what “the people” want, it’s about what they want to impose upon the people.
If they don’t like it, why dont they leave?
Denied. Love, Michigan Voters.
They overturned Roe v Wade at the federal level, said that the states need to decide. Then the states like Michigan decided. Now they are going to the federal level to get that decision overturned…
If anyone made this shit up for a story, it would be so unbelievable no one would read it.
