According to anti-abortion fanatics who want to ban certain forms of birth control
Republican state Rep. Brent Crane, Assistant Majority Leader for Idaho’s House of Representatives, gave a jawdropping TV interview on Friday in which he openly admitted that his caucus would consider banning certain forms of birth control, including Plan B emergency contraception and intrauterine devices (IUDs), in the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade.
Crane, who boasted that he’s passed or worked on 17 anti-abortion bills in the state legislature, told Idaho Reports that he “probably would” hear legislation banning the morning-after pill, and possibly IUDs as well. “I’m not certain where I would be on that issue,” he said of the latter method—as if the idea of birth control remaining legal in America, while you’re also criminalizing abortion, is a really difficult question.
Bret Crane is Vice President of an alarm company when he isn’t making decisions about women’s bodies. So he’s an expert.
This is the kind of people who are going to be making these decisions. Isn’t that great?
Recall that the GOP talking points after the SCOTUS leak said explicitly that it’s a BIG LIE that Republicans want to take away contraception.
Maybe they’ll let you use a condom. Maybe. If you promise not to abuse the privilege.
