I’ve always been of the opinion that this fight is fundamentally about personal privacy and choice, self-determination, and the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, not specifically abortion.  But that messaging ship has long since sailed.

By the time this post is published we will likely know or be close to knowing the Iowa Supreme Court’s decision on the Republicans six-week abortion ban.  Either way it goes, there is still hopeful news. Here’s some from Politico.

“In plans shared first with POLITICO, groups including Planned Parenthood, the ACLU and Reproductive Freedom for All are banding together to form Abortion Access Now — a national, 10-year campaign that will both prepare policies for the next time Democrats control the House, Senate and White House, and build support for those policies among lawmakers and the public.
