@melissagira @DavidDark @swamp__creature @rhbrandon I think the piece is pretty clear about why I doubt these folks will get on board, but I wanted to make the policy argument explicit. I have made this argument many, many times over the years. — PolitiTweet.org

@melissagira @DavidDark @swamp__creature @rhbrandon I think they'll probably spend a lot of time defending the flow of state money to crisis pregnancy centers, based on my interview with Kristen Waggoner from ADF. She also said she wants to defend bans in red states. I wrote this because, as always, I think this would be better. — PolitiTweet.org

@GoldwagNathan Well sure, but so is every piece I've ever written about how we should ban the federal death penalty, federally ban the death penalty, elect Bernie Sanders president of the USA and institute Medicare for All, etc. I'm not exactly a policy wonk for easy tweaks. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

So while it makes sense to hate me for all kinds of reasons and no reason at all, I just disagree that I'm responsible for the religious right's final success in a very overt decades-long effort to reverse Roe. Just wasn't me on any level, even when I lived in a red state. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

Where I come from in the United States (Texas), my views (being a religious person who has moral reservations about abortion, but who isn't interested in prosecution as a response) aren't actually all that uncommon. They're certainly not extreme. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

The ADF, the organization that drafted Mississippi's Gestational Age Act and helped defend it before SCOTUS, was founded the year after I was born, in 1991. I was not involved in its founding or its funding; it was largely a creation of the new Religious Right. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

Ok, here's my role: I am 31 years old, so I have had a total of 3 decades to be involved whatsoever. I was in school for the first two and a half, leaving about five years. The entire time, I've only written in favor of welfare programs and politicians like Bernie Sanders. — PolitiTweet.org

@RSGAT @TheAtlantic Indeed that's the substance of the first several paragraphs. But it's true that people would likely enjoy reading a takedown of GOP hypocrisy on this point, and this isn't dead-on that; this is actually a policy proposal in the most part. — PolitiTweet.org

@NoblestCalling @TheAtlantic you either support it or you don't; population is way too big to make this happen any other way. we need the american tax base to do this, and it'd be very easy to do. — PolitiTweet.org

Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig

New @TheAtlantic || Since the mass movement is freed up, I argue, pro-lifers should champion a federal program that would make pregnancy, labor & delivery, and any/all postpartum care free. Not holding my breath, though. https://t.co/scWqUre1TN — PolitiTweet.org
