@LawyerDave1 @ChiHoneyBear This type of language, which suggests that workers don’t/shouldn’t need a union, comes straight from union-avoidance consultants and is indicative that an employer is not engaging in the process in good faith

I see a lot of tweets about pre-Roe hospital boards that would decide whether or not a situation was emergent enough for someone to be granted an abortion. The thing is… hospitals are still doing that. And routinely denying abortions. More on that coming from me soon 👀

Antis don’t think that “good abortions” (read: their abortions) are actually abortions. While true, I don’t think telling them that their miscarriage care was an abortion will ever be the kind of gotcha you’re looking for. They think exceptions are for them and no one else

I'll be more blunt than this article is: A ban clinics providing abortions is a de facto ban on abortion. Hospitals only perform about 4% of abortions in the U.S., and most of those are emergencies.
