    Two traditional red states will make their own call!

     

    Voters in Arizona and Montana will be able to decide in November whether they want to protect the right to an abortion in their state constitutions.

    The Arizona Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that a 200-word summary that abortion advocates used to collect signatures for a ballot measure is valid, clearing the way for the issue to remain on the ballot.

    Montana Secretary of State Christi Jacobsen on Tuesday certified Montana's constitutional initiative for the November ballot.

    In Arizona, there are some exceptions for post-viability abortions to save the mother’s life or to protect her physical or mental health. Montana's measure allows later abortions if needed to protect the mother's life or health.

    Montana’s initiative would enshrine in the constitution a 1999 state Supreme Court ruling that found the constitutional right to privacy includes the right of a patient to receive an abortion from a provider of their choice. Supporters sought to protect the right as Republican lawmakers passed bills to restrict abortion rights.

    Not people in every red states can vote for the abortion measure in this November. Arkansas Supreme Court upholds rejection of abortion ballot measure, the pro reproductive freedom voters in Arkansas will desperately need Harris-Walz and Democratic Congress victories in this November.

    Association press reports that Biden administration is helping 23 million families at risk of losing affordable home internet after expiration of congress subsidy for low income families.  Internet access has become as vital as phone service in modern economy.

    Huffpost reports that Biden administration plans for the largest investment in rural electricity projects since the 1930s.  Funding from inflation reduction act to add over 10 gigawatts of wind, solar, nuclear and hydro power.  Lowering costs for 5 million households across 23 states.

    That's damn good federal government action, acting preemptively like that! an_clap

    then hurled paper towels at the surviving victims.
