These freaks always want to scream, “sTaTeS rIgHtS” right up until some other state does something they don’t like.
It’s never about states’ rights. It isn’t about religious freedom, or the children, or whatever they want to claim as their moral stand point; It’s only about control, and believing that they alone are the sole arbiters of the correct way to be. It’s about control, and it’s about the justification needed to suppress, oppress, and harm
Hopefully they apply this to Texas next.
When has the law ever stopped Alabama from hurting women and their allies?
This is the best summary I could come up with:
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — The U.S. Department of Justice on Thursday said Alabama cannot use conspiracy laws to prosecute people and groups who help women leave the state to obtain abortions.
The Justice Department filed a statement of its position in consolidated lawsuits against Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall, arguing that such prosecutions would be unconstitutional.
The department said that just as Marshall cannot stop women from crossing state lines to obtain a legal abortion, “neither can he seek to achieve the same result by threatening to prosecute anyone who assists that individual in their travel.”
The measures would not punish women who are seeking an abortion but would present legal risks to people who help transport them to get the procedure.
The two Alabama lawsuits seek a ruling clarifying that people and groups can assist women leaving the state for an abortion.
One lawsuit was filed by the Yellowhammer Fund, a group that stopped providing financial assistance to low-income abortion patients because of prosecution concerns.
