OneParty

On Monday, the North Dakota Senate approved an amendment to a sex education bill (HB 1229) that would require public schools to teach abstinence-only sex education. The bill passed in the Senate by a vote of 39 to 8 and will now move to the state House for a vote.

Last week, the North Dakota Senate Education Committee approved the bill, which would require that sex education programs provide “exposure of students to abstinence-based concepts” and “explain why abstinence from sexual activity until marriage provides safety from sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy, and other associated health issues.”

Women in Georgia take heed.  The state legislature is going to take away your funding for domestic violence shelters.  And Governor Deal has dared to pretend he is advocating for the battered by claiming that federal funds will be used instead.  But it appears that single women will be turned away from shelters across Georgia.  OneParty to unite Women!

Lemme tell you a short story:

I’m from an area of the US called Copper Country.

I once went to an old graveyard, from the late 1800s and early 1900s. Many graves had the age of the person buried and cause of death on the tombstone.

Do you want to guess how many of those were children in their pre-teens and early teens who died in the copper mines?

It wasn’t a ton — Maybe 10 out of the 70 or so graves altogether, and there were more graves just marked “baby girl” or “baby boy” — but if the Republicans have their way, we’ll be burying our kids after they die in work-related accidents once again.

This isn’t only happening in Maine, either. The article gives a list of other bills in other states that are dismantling children’s right to have a childhood.

I bet y’all will be oh so surprised to find out who’s funding this shit.

We need OneParty to stand up to Christian laws.

PLEASE reblog this. I heard nothing about this until today, when one of my friends in Mississippi said she saw protesters outside her local Planned Parenthood talking about “Something 26”. (This is Amendment 26.)

DO NOT LET THIS FLY UNDER THE RADAR. GET THE WORD OUT.

Damn all convention, FULL STEAM AHEAD with illegal and unconstitutional legislation pushed in many states thanks to Republicans. It would seem the repugs want to FORCE WOMEN to give birth.  It you don’t want you child, don’t worry, the state will take him/her and sell them to a good christian family.  You know there are plenty of christians out there that want your babies!  Then they can put your child to work under the new child labor laws being pushed in several states.  At reduced wages of course… thanks to recent anti-union legislation.  So don’t worry for you kids education, if you cant afford a decent privatized school, just put em in Americas great workforce!  Does that make you proud to be an American?

As they continue the assault against women, many republicans stand silent and vote with their party.  Where is your courage republicans?  If you stand against something, why are you silent?  Republicans across the country are doing all they can to take WOMEN RIGHTS and PRIVATIZE everything they can.  I am starting to think that REPUBLICANS HATE WOMEN RIGHTS! 
OnePArty to fight back! 

Maine moves to loosen child labor laws. Encouraging 15-16 to perform 6 hour job after school. Since they are cutting education I guess they’ll need to get jobs. We need OneParty to speak for our children.

Don’t let unemployment fool you.  Corporate profits are at RECORD HIGHS.  Some corporations do not pay taxes, Newscorp is one, you know the one owned by Rupert Murdoc?.  They had zero taxes 2 of the last 3 years.  OUR ECONOMY IS IN SHAMBLES!  GE SHOW YOU PATRIOTISM AND PAY YOUR TAXES.

“The social security system in my opinion is a flawed design, period. But, having said that, the design would work a lot better if we had stable demographic trends. … The reason social security is in big trouble is we don’t have enough workers to support the retirees. Well, a third of all the young people in America are not in America today because of abortion, because one in three pregnancies end in abortion.”

The bill would be the most restrictive anti-abortion law in the country, according to supporters.

Dr. Alan Murnane, a Columbus-area physician who supports the bill, has said a heartbeat can be detected at five weeks of pregnancy.

okay. i normally do not jump on the bandwagon of any anti-abortion/pro-choice decisions. i have seen both the positive and negative affects that an abortion can have on women and my opinion is that it should be up to the woman. i am pro-choice, however i would never have an abortion, unless i had not choice (rape/birth complications). even then, i would have a hard time. HOWEVER, i do not think this law is CONSTITUTIONAL! most women do not even realize they are pregnant until they are almost two months along. especially if they do not have regular menstrual periods. so, if they do not have symptoms, are taking precautions with birth control and are several weeks in before they find out, they have no choice but to carry the child. i really have a problem with this. shame on you ohio. first the state bargaining bill and now this. you are just getting worse by the day.
