so I don't know how I ended up on this mailing list but I got this text today and uh it came with a video so of course I I had to watch it okay so the video starts out with two Minnesota girlies enjoying some wine out of tin wine glasses just saw that Minnesota has the most extreme abortion law in the country totally normal thing to say no really it's right I hope not that's reaction a law that allows an unborn baby to be aborted at any time up to birth even healthy babies with healthy moms so it goes on from there and what they want is they want you to contact your legislator and tell them that you don't want the Equal Rights Amendment to be passed that's what that's about so k 11 did a really good write up of that video and kind of what's going on so Minnesota citizens concerned for life which is the organization that texted me they spent like a million dollars trying to derail the Equal Rights Amendment and they're banking on the fact that motans don't know what is actually allowed here in Minnesota and they're thinking that will horrify everybody and get them mobilized to contact their legislators and say no Equal Rights Amendment and the reason they don't want the Equal Rights Amendment is that it will make our rights to abortion more permanent by putting them in the state constitution so before you can hop in my comment section it is true that the pro act or the protect reproductive options Act act which was signed in 2023 does not contain any restrictions based on gational age like that is true but that ad is missing some context to begin with because of the Minnesota Supreme Court case in 1995 which was doe versus Gomez there have never been restrictions on gational age in Minnesota at least not since 1995 so that was the norm and the proact was not changing anything and secondly as Carol 11an points out the upt birth scenario does not reflect reality in our state so according to the most recent data which is 2022 there was only one third trimester abortion in the state out of like 12,000 abortions performed what the proact did is it removed the requirement that Physicians attending an abortion have to save any viable infant and before you get it twisted the reason they did that is that it was redundant like doctors already have to do that um so it's just redundant basically what this group wants to do is they want to abort this bill before it goes to the voters because they don't think that voters are going to vote it down because it's full of lots of other like good things right and it protects you know all motans and guarantees them equal rights G gross anyway I'm sure your grandma and your weird Uncle also got that text message and now you can if you want to talk to them about it you have a little bit more context which was definitely lacking and maybe a little like nuance and subtlety from that ad as well
