Yesterday we told you about S. 4381 the “Right to Contraception Act”. I’m pleased to tell you that 39 senate republicans blocked this bill from moving forward yesterday.
This bill is straight out of the democrats’ play book.
Create a crisis: “Contraception is at risk. Republicans want to take away your ‘right’ to contraception'“
Write a bill that is overly broad to accomplish your actual goal: promoting and making abortion and so-called “gender affirming care” for children a “right.”
When the bill gets blocked by the republicans, scare the public into believing that they will no longer have access to “contraception” (most people aren’t thinking abortion or “gender affirming care” - they’re thinking condoms and birth control pills, etc) and that republicans hate women.
Immediately after the vote yesterday afternoon POTUS, VP, The White House, Planned Parenthood and hundreds of other entities around the country had their media campaigns launched. (Got to give them credit for their strategy and organization) Below are just a few examples I grabbed from X.

It’s an election year, so we can expect these political tactics of manipulation to be used even more often over the next several months. Politicians love to use fear as a motivator to make voters believe that “the other guys” are a threat to their rights or well-being.
We, as conservatives, or just sane, truth-telling people, have to punch back against these lies and manipulations. That’s why we try to give you facts about these policies so that you’re equipped to have respectful conversations with people in your network who are buying the lies the MSM, special interest groups, and politicians are selling them.
If you missed it yesterday, our post about S 4381 gives a lot of details and facts about what this bill is really about. https://conservativeladiesofamerica.substack.com/p/right-to-contraception-bill-is-an
