Progressive Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) announced Wednesday that there are currently enough votes in the Senate to suspend the filibuster to codify Roe v. Wade and abortion rights if Democrats win control of the House and keep the Senate and White House.

“We will suspend the filibuster. We have the votes for that on Roe v. Wade,” Warren said on ABC’s “The View.”

She said if Democrats control the White House and both chambers of Congress in 2025, “the first vote Democrats will take in the Senate, the first substantive vote, will be to make Roe v. Wade law of the land again in America.”

    That being said, though, it’s inadequacies HAVE lead to the deaths of many, perhaps thousands or even hundreds of thousands, from not being able to afford treatment before it’s too late.

    Yeah, but less people died than they would have if there was no ACA.

    Its terrible that people die in the country every day from healthcare issues that are taken care of by every other first world country on the planet.

    but god damn, sitting here saying shit like you are screams of nothing but impotent anti-ACA troll flailing.

    the ACA needs to have its holes patched, yes, but don’t sit here and pretend its not saving a fuckton of lives.
