i'm glad to see them move forward on a bill that prioritizes individual rights over religious concepts of the sanctity of life, and the more religious people that find themselves upset by it, the more that means they're doing this right.

this bill should upset the religious - the ruling is a direct negation of religious law. the government needs to hold to that, not water it down or seek a compromise.

and, the courts have been very aggressive in asserting the point: this is an individual right and a personal choice and the government needs to get out of the way, while providing access at the same time.

my body, my choice is absolute - there is no caveat for the religious beliefs of family members.
