  1. I am adopted and I am very lucky it was a family member who did so, but in saint Anne's Worcester mass children's home a orphanage that was recently knocked down google its on the web . I saw many many children who where older then me who never got homes grew up there . REMEMBER they may not be baby's or little 5 year-olds but they 2 need a loving home and so eone to tell them hey I care ..2 issue is the cost of adoption where talking in the thousands and thousands of dollars…on top of the wait time ….

  2. Restore Roe. Vote blue until they do! 💙

  3. If you don’t want that life at least give that life back to God so because we know that that life will be in good hands. Dont give a life to these wicked organizations

  4. Poor little Kimmie lost . Thank you Supreme Court of Iowa for protecting women’s rights.

  5. Don't Murder Your Children.

  6. You mean democracy just got a big win, 'cause when all adult citizens have equal rights, democracy wins.

  7. This isn't about saving lives, this is about legal control over women. The law has no place in making those sort of decisions.

  8. CAN THEY HEAR US NOW?

  9. A SIGNIFICANT WIN for women’s reproductive rights, but a damned close one, if you listen to the reported details. If you want to prevent the state from stealing way your rights, re my son vigilant and keep fighting. That said, CONGRATULATIONS!🎉🎊 🍾🍸

  10. Don't Worry Ladies, … The GOP will give you all the RIGHTS you need. Human Rights are not State Rights….right?

  11. Abortion has allowed entire populations to be wiped out due to dehumanization. From the issue of “missing girls” caused by gendercide, to the genocide committed against preborn children with disabilities, abortion allows people to be wiped out when they’re at their most vulnerable. Gendercide has wiped out over 100 million girls, often in places like China and India, leading to terrible consequences. In reality, however, it happens across the globe — even in countries like Australia and the United States.

  12. I love hearing white guys talk about abortion- NOT!

  13. Never underestimate the multi billion dollar stem cell industry and their effect on judges?

  14. THE DRACONIAN GOP WON'T BE HAPPY UNTIL THEY COMPLETELY TAKE AWAY WOMEN'S REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH CARE. EVIL DOES EXIST AND IT IS CALLED THE TALIBAN GOP. VOTE BLUE 2024.

  15. Myy pronoun is USA and I celebrate real woman's month everyday of every month 😊😊😊

  16. It's all bull crap! With so many childless couples out there wanting to adopt a baby, abortion is heartless!

  17. Democrats love dead babies 🙄

  18. ZOMBIEJESUSFREAK FACIST HATER GROOMERS

  19. Red states are stripping people rights to be in charge of their bodies, gerrymandering the rights to vote yet guns and more guns. All of the sudden women are rights are lower than guns!

  20. When did Iowa become so stupid? It used to be purple and live-and-let-live. Now this bitter witch and her tight wad fans are making bass ackwards laws.

  21. God didn't come to the aid of the state of Iowa on this one.

  22. "… rights that no longer exist."
    I am extremely bothered by this.
    I mean, which of our rights will be next?
