Mackenzie Krumme and Jonah Beleckis at WPR:
Vice President and Democratic nominee for president Kamala Harris told WPR’s “Wisconsin Today” on Monday that she supports ending the filibuster to restore Roe v. Wade to protect abortion rights nationally. “I think we should eliminate the filibuster for Roe,” Harris said in an interview that aired Tuesday morning. “And get us to the point where 51 votes would be what we need to actually put back in law the protections for reproductive freedom and for the ability of every person and every woman to make decisions about their own body and not have their government tell them what to do.” In 2022 as vice president, Harris said she supported ending the filibuster to protect reproductive and voting rights. As a candidate for president in 2019 when she was a U.S. senator, she also said she would support ending the filibuster to pass environmental legislation known as the Green New Deal.
The filibuster can be an attempt to delay or block a vote for a piece of legislation. Eliminating it would effectively allow the U.S. Senate to pass some legislation with a simple majority rather than meeting a 60-vote threshold. Harris’ interview with “Wisconsin Today” comes days after her fourth campaign visit to the state.
YES!!! Kamala Harris supports eliminating the filibuster to restore abortion rights that were stripped away by Roe v. Wade being overturned in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization. Harris made those comments on Wisconsin Public Radio’s Wisconsin Today on Monday.

MAGA Republicans would prefer to go back to the theocratic Puritan 1640s, but they'll settle for 1864 as a first step.
As for that year during the Civil War, we all know which side they would have been on.

There’s a reason these laws get repealed
Because they’re gross and horrible
I'll be damned if Republicans are taking women back to 1864 laws.
Democrats will beat Republicans in a landslide.

My mother and I went out to sign a petition today and the lady asked if we would spread the word around. I don't have any local friends, but maybe if y'all will spread this around it'll reach the right eyes. I'm going to drop some links about the voter-led abortion access movement in my state, mostly where you can go to sign petitions, but also just some general information.

With Kamala Harris (and a Democratic Congress) you get reproductive freedom. With "Weird Donald" Trump you lose freedoms.
Kamala Harris jumped into the presidential race with a broad pledge to “restore reproductive freedom.” The Harris campaign specified Monday that she’s calling for restoring Roe v. Wade. While many abortion-rights groups are championing her bid for the White House, some activists are frustrated with her position on the issue and plan to keep pushing to go further than President Joe Biden. The Harris campaign told POLITICO the stance the vice president took in a September interview with “Face the Nation” hasn’t changed — support for restoring Roe, which protected abortion until the point of fetal viability, around 22 weeks of pregnancy. “I am being precise. We need to put into law the protections of Roe v. Wade,” Harris said in that interview. “And that is about going back to where we were before the Dobbs decision.”
Weird Donald is trying to label Kamala as an "abortion radical". But her position is basically that of the US in between 1973 and 2022. In '22 the GOP US Supreme Court overturned 49 years of established law and told women that they had no federal right to abortion. All three Trump justices voted to overturn Roe v. Wade.
It's Weird Donald who is the true "abortion radical". The convicted felon and adjudicated sex offender is pandering to extreme fundamentalist Christians who wish to make America a theocratic equivalent of Iran – but with Jesus instead of Muhammad.
Kamala's position aligns with that of most Americans.
Polling shows that while there is broad support for access to abortion, most people believe there should be some restrictions. A YouGov/The Times poll last week found that 31 percent of voters think there should be no restrictions on abortion, while another 32 percent support abortions in most cases with some restrictions, and 30 percent believe the procedure should only be allowed in special circumstances.
Iowa just became the latest red state to ban nearly all abortions.
On Monday, as Iowa became the 18th state to ban nearly all abortions, the Harris campaign announced a “Fight for Reproductive Freedom” week of action that will include dozens of events across battleground states. Harris, in a video released Monday, lambasted the Iowa law as another “Trump abortion ban.”

I am begging people giving U.S. politics commentary to have, just, a basic, basic, 6th grade citizenship class level of understanding of the relationship between the branches of government. Please. You will not get icky electoralism cooties if you learn that "Whoever is the president right now is responsible for decisions the supreme court hands down right now" is nonsense.
#not only did you not pay attention in school#you obviously didn't pay attention in church camp#when they diligently instructed a bunch of kids who couldn't vote yet#that when we COULD vote we had to vote for antiabortion presidential and senate candidates#because the president appoints federal judges and the senate confirms them#draw the little chart#and if we all work very hard to elect antiabortion presidents and senators#Roe would be overturned in a few decades#and indeed#a couple of decades later#who could have FORESEEN?#your right-wing uncle who thinks the government is making the frogs gay#and that gay immigrants are coming to take his guns and his women#has a better understanding of the relationship between the presidency and the federal judiciary than you do#because this is fucking emphasized in right wing circles!#while y'all are like#“well actually Dobbs happened under BIDEN I am very clever”#“ha ha what do you mean if reelected he'll restore Roe he's elected right now ha ha”#Biden is waiting for the current justices to die Brenda#I don't even like Biden! I'm voting for him very reluctantly!#you people's piss poor civics understanding is making me defend Joseph Robinette Biden!

DON’T MAKE PERFECT THE ENEMY OF THE GOOD
Planned Parenthood and NARAL declined to offer any support to petition signature collection because they said the amendment to restore abortion rights was “too restrictive.”
Right now in Arkansas, there is a total abortion ban.
The majority of abortions are done in the first 12 weeks. This amendment would restore access to the most common and desperately needed abortion care.
Opposing it is not just absurd, it’s heartless.
Arkansas has the highest maternal mortality rate in the nation.
So, I guess we’re fine with letting more women die because it doesn’t fit neatly into our political agenda.
The campaign used conservative messaging and sought Republican support. That’s what it takes to restore access to abortion care in one of the reddest states in the country.
If you actually care about restoring reproductive rights, you should be welcoming bipartisan support.
Congratulations to Arkansans for Limited Government for pulling off an incredible petition gathering campaign with nothing but pure organizing hustle.
This is only the first hurdle but every post-Dobbs ballot initiative restoring or protecting abortion access has passed.
We can do this.
Not today, patriarchy, not today

"State's rights" has been a racist dog whistle for decades. Republicans are now tying it to women's rights. Ironically, they're not wrong.
Republicans are for rich, white men. The rest of us need to get together and vote them out. We rise together.
Joe comes out firing

Leftists are never beating the antiblackness and antisemitism allegations.
#us politics#us elections#telling a Black Islander that I need to ‘ care’ about something while asking me to help the GOP win is nasty work#I do care about roe v Wade being restored so Black Women can receive healthcare#that is my priority#and many others#but Black People are supposed to be mules to others and I’m sick of this shit

Arizona Republicans who had been calling for the most extreme abortion restrictions possible are abruptly flip-flopping now that the 100% Republican-appointed Arizona Supreme Court has given them exactly what they had been working for. 😳
Most Republicans had been calling for the repeal of Roe v. Wade since the US Supreme Court legalized abortion in 1973. When the GOP-majority SCOTUS overturned Roe in 2022, Republicans began to realize that most Americans didn't want Christian fundamentalist overseers in every bedroom and doctor's office in the US.
These sudden changes of opinion on abortion by Republicans are more fake than Trump's face color.
CNN anchor rolls tape on Arizona politician's abortion stance before the state Supreme Court ruling
Don't believe Republicans pretending to be moderate on abortion. They had been striving to make abortion illegal since 1973 and when they succeeded, they absolutely gloated about it.

I wonder if there are other 19th century laws still on the books that Republicans would like to bring back. Since they're so into "states' rights".
“Barely 24 hours after Roe-destroying Donald Trump took the craven and elastic position that he would leave abortion policy to the individual states, Arizona’s Supreme Court showed us exactly what that will look like. In reviving a draconian, mid-19th century abortion ban passed when Arizona was still a territory, the high court upended the state’s closely watched Senate race, made it an even swingier swing state in the presidential election, put a potential November abortion-rights referendum front and center, and exposed the fundamental fraud of Trump’s position.”
— Women’s health is obviously the core issue here, but the self-own of Republicans spending half a century forcing through the courts a deeply unpopular political position and now seeing those chickens come home to roost is one of the pleasures of being old enough to have witnessed nearly the entire story arc.
