When it comes to the rights of women, we cannot go backwards. We have got to go forward.
We are not going back to the days when women had to risk their lives to end an unwanted pregnancy. The decision about abortion must remain a decision for the woman and her doctor to make, not the government.
We are not going to allow the extreme right-wing to defund Planned Parenthood, we are going to expand it. Planned Parenthood provides vital healthcare services for millions of women, who rely on its clinics every year for affordable, quality health care services including cancer prevention, STI and HIV testing and general primary health care services. The current attempt to malign Planned Parenthood is part of a long-term smear campaign by people who want to deny women in this country the right to control their own bodies.
We are not going back to the days when women did not have full access to birth control. Incredibly, almost all of the Republicans in the Senate are in favor of giving any employer who provides health insurance, or any insurance company, the ability to deny coverage for contraception or any other kind of procedure if the employer had a moral objection to it. That is unacceptable.
Expand and protect the reproductive rights of women.
Sen. Sanders has consistently fought against Republican attacks on the fundamental rights of women to control their own bodies. As president, Sen. Sanders would expand, not cut, funding for Planned Parenthood, the Title X family planning program, and other initiatives that protect womens health, access to contraception, and the availability of a safe and legal abortion.
Now please show me the part that says "Abortion on demand up to the point of birth". Thanks.

(10,751 posts)...reading in meanings that aren't there, then using your made-up non-facts to smear Bernie. Even after your candidate won the nomination. And you probably wonder why some of us think that Hillary's supporters are sore losers.
Done with you on this thread. TTFN

(47,209 posts)I'm sorry to say there were a lot of delusions he "was better on abortion" for that squib on his site.
It's obvious he never gave much thought to that position or he'd know it has zero support. zero.

(10,751 posts)...to my post #11, I can only assume you cannot back up your statement.
This thread had nothing to do with Bernie, and yet you could not resist the chance to throw in a nasty lie about his position on abortion, trying to tar him with the brush that Trump used to tar Hillary with. Shame on you for that.

(21,691 posts)If you want to be taken seriously, use the correct term: ID&E, or intact dilation and extraction, which is a procedure mostly commonly done in the second trimester or rarely, in the early third trimester on a dead or dying fetus. All ID&Es are a tiny fraction of the terminations performed each year.

FWIW - as far as I know, no one aborts a fetus in the third trimester unless something is very, very wrong. We aren't talking about someone who decided on a whim to end the pregnancy
REP
(21,691 posts)Doctors usually don't use "abortion," though; termination is the usual terminology. And aspiration curettage, C-section, induced labor and ID&E all terminate a pregnancy... as does full term birth.
