Sinema kills plan to codify abortion rights -- then fundraises on protecting women's health care

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., on Thursday sent out a fundraising email touting her work to protect women's health care after shooting down President Joe Biden's proposal to codify abortion rights.

Biden on Thursday called for the Senate to support a filibuster carveout to pass a federal law ensuring the right to an abortion.

"The most important thing ... we have to change -- I believe we have to codify Roe v. Wade in the law," Biden said during a news conference at the NATO summit in Madrid. "And the way to do that is to make sure the Congress votes to do that. And if the filibuster gets in the way, it's like voting rights -- it should be (that) we provide an exception to this ... requiring an exception to the filibuster for this action to deal with the Supreme Court decision."

The plan was quickly shot down by Sinema and Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., who have opposed scrapping the filibuster. Sinema's office told CNN that the senator is "still opposed to gutting the filibuster on any topic including on reproductive rights."

3. Please people in her area. Go to where she is talking about bring these things up in front of

her supporters!!! Just ask her out loud why she did it and record it.

Then make an attack ad out of it.

I'm convinced too many people just do not know what is going on.
