.....................we could start by naming THE SUPREME COURT "THE EXTREME COURT, FOR THE POLITICANS AND BY THE POLITICANS".

Women should have help fighting back" at ground level, where it all begins. They fight every day of their lives for what should rightfully be theirs. Equal pay for equal work; as an example, Like civil rights, there can be goals, laws and quotas but it still takes a village and God knows how much time. How far have we really come?? I'll stop here.... before I can't stop.

This is quite an ominous problem. As many are saying, this will, once again, be a minority and poor person's problem. We know that, if you are rich and influential, you can get the medical care and privacy that you want, but what of the rest of us? And then, what will come next? No IVF for gay couples, punishment for miscarriages, etc. The Handmaid's Tale, here we come.

Deda, I am so sad and angry. Young women are going to wake up to the world we grew up in - back alleys and coat hangers. What a shame - and what hypocrisy on the part of the "pro-lifers." All their blather about the "sanctity of life" but they can't do anything about children being murdered in their schools. And Barrett - that she would say at oral argument that the problem can be taken care of with "safe havens" - does she think carrying a fetus to term and giving birth is like making a cheesecake???

I sincerely hope you are right about legislation being passed - but I am not optimistic about it.

Regards,

Nona
