    Senate Democrats tee up likely doomed vote on protecting nationwide abortion access.
    ABC News (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 78% • 3 min read

    The Senate will take a procedural vote to start debate on [the Women's Health and Protection Act] next week, Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced. The legislation would codify Roe while also banning requirements some states have put into place, such as waiting periods and mandatory doctor's visits before the procedure.
    ...
    The bill cleared the House of Representatives in September 2021, but in the Senate Schumer failed to get even the entire Democratic caucus on board. Any effort to protect abortion access nationwide is likely to face an uphill battle in the 50-50 divided chamber, where Democrats don't have the 60 votes needed to overcome an expected filibuster.
    ...
    [Sen. Susan Collins and Sen. Lisa Murkowski, the only Senate Republicans who support abortion rights] have their own proposal to codify Roe. Their bill would prohibit states from imposing an "undue burden" on the ability of a woman to choose to terminate a pregnancy pre-viability but also allows states to keep other restrictions.

YESTERDAY'S POLL

Should active-duty service members receive periodic psychological counseling?

424 votes, 47 comments

Context: Spate of suicides on Navy aircraft carrier.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

Yes - Literally everyone should. Especially those whom we know will be put into traumatic situations by the nature of their job; military, police, emergency room doctors. We need to stop treating counseling like it's a prescription for only those desperate enough to use it. Talking to a qualified professional is beneficial for psychological and emotional health for all people in all circumstances, especially the aforementioned.


Unsure - I'm not sure that all active duty members need psychological evaluations but there are some positions that would benefit. We should probably focus on those deployed...



No - I have worked in the mental health industry for decades, and feel counseling can help just about anyone. However, mandated cou...
