They can abolish the filibuster and codify #RoeVWade RIGHT NOW! President Hillary Clinton never would’ve let Roe be overturned. Well I’d love to be posting about the met gala but this is the only attendee I care about. Now, women of America, they’re overruling Roe v. First they came for Black voters, then they targeted LGBTQ+ families. So let me get this right: I don’t get to tell you to wear a mask during a pandemic… but YOU can make me carry a pregnancy I don’t want or that isn’t safe to term (and then of course be solely financially responsible for the baby)? Oh. Īuthor Jodi Picoult offered sharp words regarding the ruling. The overturning of Roe V Wade is a political act of violence against us and we will not accept it. Tonight our highest court declared war on more than half of its citizens- women and birthing people everywhere.
We will not be quiet and we will not go back.Īmber Tamblyn called the decision “A political act of violence against us.” They may try to force their views on a country where 70% of people want Roe upheld. Women’s rights are human rights and human rights are women’s rights.Īn extreme wing of the Supreme Court may seek to deny that fundamental truth. If you don’t have the wherewithal to understand that, to start the conversation with, ‘I know how hard this must be for you.’ If you’re starting it by telling me I’m going to burn in hell, then you’re not looking out for me as a human being, whether I subscribe to your religion or not, and that is not OK.”įormer secretary of state Hillary Clinton wrote on Twitter that “70% of people want Roe upheld,” and urged her followers to take action against the ruling. “It is a hard, awful decision that people make. It’s not something people do lightly, it’s not something you can just do,” Goldberg passionately stated. If you care about me as a human being, you should know three things. “This is not a religious issue, this is a human issue. It has nothing to do about your religion.” This law came about because people wanted people to have somewhere safe and somewhere clean. Well, we got tired of tripping over women in bathrooms, public bathrooms, who were giving themselves abortions because there was nowhere safe, nowhere clean, nowhere to go. Okay? Women, when they decide something is not right for them, they’re going to take it into their own hands. “The reason abortion came about - women in this country lived forever with it being illegal. “This is my body and nobody… you won’t let me make my decisions about my body?,” Goldberg said on “The View.” “You are not the person to make that decision” she began.
Goldberg has previously publicly discussed having an abortion when she was a teenager. On the episode of “The View” that aired on Tuesday, host Whoopi Goldberg gave a fiery speech about the decision. “Hope you have a great day remember when you chose your career over womens being tested as humans and all the other assholes who caused this,” Schumer wrote.Īlso on Instagram, Busy Phillipps drew attention to the contrast between the Met Gala and the news occurring at the same time by captioning her post “the Gilded Age,” referencing the Met Gala theme of “Gilded Glamour.” In the caption of a post saying “To the streets,” Schumer tagged Maine senator Susan Collins, who attracted a wave of criticism in 2018 when she cast the deciding vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. On Instagram, Amy Schumer posted an announcement that she would be attending a Planned Parenthood protest in New York City on Tuesday at Foley Square. The news has caused a wave of condemnations from celebrities across the entertainment industry.
