#NoOn115

Look: even dearly wanted pregnancies go bad. You usually learn it at the 20 week ultrasound.
Pregnancy is 40 weeks long. What 115 advocates want is to forbid any care for a failed pregnancy after the middle of gestation.

This is what they want:

(CW: abuse, death)

At 22+ weeks, the fetus has either died, or will die.
Or the pregnant person will die.
Or she was raped by her father and at 13, was too young to realize what was happening.
Or has been held captive, by an abuser or a government.
Nobody does this on a whim.
Needing a post 22 week abortion is a tragedy and the almost worst nightmare.
They happen because the worst nightmare is everyone dead — mom & baby — or forcing one’s wanted baby to suffer for the short time they live.

There will not be exceptions. 115 can’t have exceptions.
Colorado, we have rejected this nonsense every time it’s come up. It is nonsense.

The only reason it’s on the ballot now is to get out the votes from people who don’t like women much and do their best to live in denial of the tragedy they so desire.
