"Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo signed the Reproductive Privacy Act on Wednesday. The act codifies the Supreme Court decision Roe v. Wade into state law."

I'm not prepared to go quite that far but I do wonder sometimes. So far, giving them the benefit of the doubt has only ended with more indications that they're politically-motivated more than anything.
