Today, #prolife advocates rally outside the US Supreme Court as the Justices hear oral arguments re: Louisiana's requirement that abortionists have admitting privileges at a local hospital. SPL's @Terrisalin will speak at the rally. Her remarks: blog.secularprolife.org/2020/03/todays…
Kevin Work is a disgraced doctor who’s had multiple run-ins with medical regulators. His license was suspended four times. Eventually his license was reinstated with strict limits: the only type of medicine he was allowed to practice was wound care. 1/

As an atheist, I am proud to support this pro-science law – which holds abortion to the same high standards as other medical procedures. 5/
As a Democrat, I am proud to support this bipartisan law – which was championed by one of my personal heroines, Democratic state senator Katrina Jackson, and signed into law by pro-life Democratic Governor John Bel Edwards. 6/
And as a feminist, I am proud to support this pro-woman law. Honorable Justices of the United States Supreme Court, do the right thing and uphold Louisiana’s law! /end
