Letter to Gov. Ivey

I decided to send the governor of Alabama a letter instead of a coat hanger.  It somehow seemed more meaningful.  Here's what I sent to Gov. Kay Ivey:

It seems to me that both you and the legislators who passed the bill that says rape victims made pregnant may not get abortions and that doctors who perform abortions would be subject to 99-year-prison terms are guilty of terrible hypocrisy.

I have yet to hear of either you or an Alabama legislator protest the treatment of children who come across our border.  I have yet to hear of either you or an Alabama legislator express concern about the hundreds of thousands of children in Yemen who are in danger of starvation, largely as a result of a war financed in part by the United States. 

If you are going to label yourselves “pro life,” than start acting pro life.  Pass legislation for gun safety.  Pass legislation for prenatal care.  Get rid of the death penalty.  Don’t just pass bills to that mandate forced pregnancy.
