  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Rep. Ogles Reintroduces Bill to Federally Ban Chemical Abortions

House Republicans propose bill to restrict abortion nationwide

A group of House Republicans on Monday introduced a bill that would ban medication abortion nationwide and impose a prison sentence of up to 25 years on anyone who dispenses the drugs, which are used in the majority of abortions across the country.

"I’m taking a stand against the irresponsibility of the Democrats and working to protect women and girls across America," Republican Rep. Andy Ogles of Tennessee, the lead sponsor of the bill, wrote in a news release.

Republicans are targeting medication abortion even though 72% of Americans support it, according to a March 2024 Axios/Ipsos poll.

It's still up to the states, just not with chemicals. The same way that European countries won't give us the chemicals for lethal injection.

Seems like it goes against the Supreme Court decision.
I imagine it would be legal to prevent the post office from handling it, but there's FedEx and ups.
If only I could believe these Congress members really care about the unborn, but people who seem to care so little about the living must have some other motivation.

Congress is permitted to look at a decision by SCOTUS and craft a law that would lie in between the boundaries of that decision. This, (per se) is “normal”.

They’d also have to delineate betwixt legitimate uses of the “chemicals” and the illicit use, (to induce a miscarriage), they could direct the DEA to reschedule them to restrict the availability of the “chemicals”, e.g..
