It's cool I fixed it now.

America, moments after outlawing IVF

Just as an aside, I'm an American that emigrated to Canada. My province (BC) is currently passing a law to make one attempt at IVF free for everyone (starting midyear in 2025)... laws actually can be used for good.

In America, laws can also be used for good. Just not your good.

Yeah this is cool and all but how can it benefit the wealthiest people in the country more? ✊💦✊💦

I'm very happy to hear that at least some in the US understand what is being done to them

Lots of us know, but we mostly live in urban centers where life is better (and often a bit less car centric, for example). Our voting and election finance laws erase lots of our voices.

Just be lucky that when motivated, we still vastly outvote the right wing nuts.
