Lisco's American Life
828. Heartbeat Act
"Starting this month, in Colorado, it will be illegal for women to have abortions if they are more than 6 weeks pregnant, regardless of the factors that led to your pregnancy. QJ, ethics, 6 weeks is simply 6 weeks, it will be
Local government leaves women the only safe time."
When I said this, the audience was already in an uproar. Speaking of which, people from all walks of life were 100% opposed to this proposal, especially women's rights organizations. Everyone believed that whether to adopt abortion was the sole discretion of women as human beings.
a right.
This is just like the democratic freedom that the U.S. government has always promoted, which is the autonomy enjoyed by every citizen and human being.
But after this proposal was put forward, it overturned the bottom line that everyone had always adhered to. When will it be a crime to decide whether one should become a mother?
Therefore, the biggest local news during this period was this proposal. Feminist organizations have organized many demonstrations and sit-in demonstrations in front of the state capital. However, the results have been minimal. After the state capital legislators voted, this proposal
It has been officially adopted, which means that it has been clearly marked into the laws of Colorado.
As one of the few female congressmen in the state capital, Ms. Lowry is naturally on the side of the feminist organization. She is also a flag-bearer promoted by the feminist organization, and many of her political ideas have been recognized by the other party.
This can also be regarded as an alternative exchange of resources. Through Ms. Lowry’s status as a parliamentarian, she can promote the ideas of feminist organizations. At the same time, Ms. Lowry also received a large part of the votes of these women.
Therefore, after receiving persuasion from feminist organizations, Ms. Lowry immediately made up her mind to oppose this proposal.
However, the results achieved were not very obvious. As a female congressman, she already occupies a weak position in the state capital, and there were not many congressmen that Ms. Lowry could contact. So she had to find another way and seek help from people from all walks of life.
They have held this kind of speech many times recently, whether they are attending other people's banquets, expressing their own opinions in public places, or announcing their opinions to the public through the media.
For feminist organizations and working women, no matter what the final outcome is, they will try their best to save the status of women in society who have fallen into the quagmire again and stick to their opinions and bottom line.
Li Ke and Zhang Li looked at each other, and the meanings expressed in their eyes were extremely similar.
"After I just learned that this bill was passed, I thought for a moment that I had returned to the Middle Ages. What kind of government would allow such an inhumane and discriminatory bill to pass. As we all know, my political opinion has always been peace.
Develop the economy and rarely criticize existing laws because I believe in the credibility of a state capital and the decisions of all legislators and leaders."
At this point, Ms. Laurie paused, and at the same time scanned the entire venue. Everyone listened very carefully to her continued story.
"You must know that for many women, they do not realize whether they are pregnant for 6 weeks, so before they make their own decision, they must be prepared to welcome a new life in terms of physical, psychological, emotional and financial aspects.
Before they were born. Before they made their own decision about whether they could afford the responsibility of bringing another life to this planet, a bunch of strangers had already made the decision for them."
At this time, most people in the venue were deep in thought, and Ms. Lowry's speech was so deeply rooted in people's hearts that they couldn't help but begin to reflect on whether this proposal was really beneficial to human development.
"I have ideals, I have hope, I have ambitions for the future, and so do every woman here today, locally, and even around the world. But without our participation or seeking our opinions,
, our control over the future has been taken away."
Ms. Laurie's mood began to rise. She had given up standing on the podium and speaking into the microphone. Instead, she walked off the stage, stood in the crowd, faced everyone, and asked questions word by word.
Shouting excitedly.
"I have begun to worry, what if my daughter is raped? My relatives, my friends and every woman I know, what should they do if something unfortunate happens to them? My hope,
My ideals, my ambitions, and my expectations for the future will all be destroyed by this bill in that moment."
When it comes to this, many people's expressions have changed drastically. They also followed Ms. Laurie's words and subconsciously brought in this identity. As the other party said, if it is really true among their relatives, friends and people they know,
It is undoubtedly very sad to have something like this happen to you.
"Today was originally just a charity fundraiser. I'm very sorry for taking up everyone's time, but I have to bring up this topic on such a day full of compassion and charity, where you are most willing to hear my voice.
One day, we women’s voices, my voice on behalf of all women and my voice as a mother, came to tell everyone how serious a problem this is.”
At this point in the speech, everyone's emotions were aroused by Ms. Lowry. Quite a few men also became excited. After all, they also have wives and daughters, and also have people in their lives who are very important to them.
Important women, so this point of view is very sympathetic.
"This kind of thing cannot be allowed to go on. Some people may think that I have protected my daughter, my wife, the important women in my life very well, and will not face this kind of problem, but in this society there are still
There are many vulnerable groups who need you to stand up and speak for each other, and the emergence of this bill tramples on the concept of equality between men and women that we all work hard for. They have broken our bottom line and made us make
Concessions will lower our bottom line again and again in the days to come, and eventually we will return to that era of ignorance."
"This is a fight for my body, a fight for my full strength, a fight for all of us and the stability of society, a fight for your mothers, your daughters, and every woman you know.
We cannot remain silent and wait for death. Until this battle is won, I will continue to raise my voice to say no to this ridiculous bill."
