SC’s backdoor abortion ban is now law. Abortions are banned after 6 weeks. Many women don’t even know they're pregnant until after 6 weeks. But now Gov McMaster wants to go even further- a total ban with *no exceptions.* It’s beyond extreme. It’s reprenhensible. Vote. Him. Out.

Make no mistake - women’s rights are on the ballot in November. Reproductive freedom is on the ballot. Choice is on the ballot. And you know what else is on the ballot? Governor Henry McMaster. We need you to vote like lives depend on it - because they do. #VetoSoHard

My Administration will do everything in its lawful power to fight back against the devastating decision overturning Roe v. Wade and to protect the fundamental rights of women. Now, Congress must take action.

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson. As I said the day she was confirmed: You’d be hard-pressed to find someone better qualified for the job. Congratulations, Justice Jackson.

There are less than 135 days until the midterm elections, and a lot is at stake. Extreme Republicans like Mitch McConnell have already said a national abortion ban is possible if they win power. We must elect Democrats at all levels and defend reproductive rights.

Why do Republicans continue to vote against helping the American people?

This is what’s at stake in November.

Thanks to The Daily Gamecock for shining a light on this. Many teachers can relate to those interviewed in this piece, and I hear you loud and clear. W/o retaining top quality teachers, students will struggle. Increasing staff pay, and reducing unnecessary paperwork must be a priority.
