Speaking to <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2024\/06\/05\/senate-gop-contraception\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Washington Post<\/a>,<\/em> Senator <strong>Joni Ernst<\/strong> referred to as the invoice \u201cfear-mongering,\u201d and launched one that doesn&#8217;t shield entry to the morning-after tablet. Senator <strong>John Cornyn<\/strong> claimed Democrats are holding a \u201cphony vote because contraception to my knowledge is not illegal. It\u2019s not unavailable. To suggest that it\u2019s somehow in jeopardy should be embarrassing, but it\u2019s hard to embarrass some people around here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Of course, what folks like Cornyn don\u2019t word is that that\u2019s the precise argument Republicans used to make about abortion, earlier than the federal proper to the medical process was summarily scrapped. Referring to Supreme Court Justice <strong>Clarence Thomas<\/strong>\u2019s 2022 declaration that the court docket \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanityfair.com\/news\/2022\/06\/supreme-court-roe-v-wade-clarence-thomas-contraception-same-sex-marriage-sodomy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">should reconsider<\/a>\u201d a few of its previous selections, together with the one defending entry to contraception, Senator <strong>Mazie Hirono<\/strong> <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/senate-democrats-put-squeeze-republicans-vote-contraceptive-access\/story?id=110864013\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/senate-democrats-put-squeeze-republicans-vote-contraceptive-access\/story?id=110864013&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/senate-democrats-put-squeeze-republicans-vote-contraceptive-access\/story?id=110864013\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">informed<\/a> ABC News: \u201cWhenever a Supreme Court justice, especially in the MAGA far right, says he wants to revisit a case, you can bet that he\u2019s looking to overturn.\u201d In a speech on the Senate ground on Wednesday, Minority Leader <strong>Chuck Schumer<\/strong> warned: \u201cA few years ago it was <em>Roe.<\/em> A few years from now it could be something else. We are kidding ourselves if we think the hard right is done with their attacks on reproductive rights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Last month, <strong>Donald Trump<\/strong> was requested in an interview, \u201cDo you support any restrictions on a person\u2019s right to contraception?\u201d And somewhat than saying a easy \u201cno,\u201d he responded: \u201cWe\u2019re looking at that, and I\u2019m gonna have a policy on that very shortly, and I think it\u2019s something that you\u2019ll find\u00a0interesting.
