Lest We Forget....

Republicans Want to Legalize Rape

And we can certainly all agree that all forms of rape are illegal.

Now, House Republicans want to change all that.

Using an abortion bill -- the easiest place to play with the rape definition -- Republicans are trying to limit who can receive federal assistance for abortions. Let’s just put aside the whole abortion/Medicaid thing. Forget their obscene attempts to limit our rights as women. That’s one battle that has always existed and will always exist.
