Text for H.Res.7 - 119th Congress (2025-2026): Recognizing the importance of access to comprehensive, high-quality, life-affirming medical c

A highlight from this filth:

“Whereas healthcare for women should also address the needs of men, families, and communities as they relate to women’s healthcare;”

To borrow a line from my great grandmother:

#HR7

This bill would make it almost impossible for many women—especially lower-income women and women of color—to access abortion.

Pro-birth, not pro-life. That's what it is. If you haven't heard, the House passed HR 7, which bars women from using health insurance to pay for abortions. This obviously prohibits many women from being able to get an abortion. These Republicans do not care about life or livelihood. They don't care about the women who will suffer, or their family members and friends who will need to help. They especially don't care about the children they are forcing into the world. If a woman wants an abortion, it is for a reason. If a woman can't afford raising a child, so they want an abortion, now they can't have one. This family will most likely rely on government services, which, as we know, the Republicans want to make harder to get/lessen them. Weird that they don't mind government regulation and stepping in for women's bodies, but helping people is an issue. Anyway. If a woman is raped and gets pregnant, she may want an abortion. If she can't have one, she may resent the child and/or herself. This can lead to horrible consequences for them both. If a woman is left by the father, and doesn't have family or friends to help, she may not feel like she can raise the child. If a woman may not live through giving birth, she may understandably not want to give birth. Not being able to afford it should not stop her. Religious views should not stop her. Regardless of the reason a woman has, no one can tell her that she has to bring a person into the world. This will mostly hurt poorer women. Growing up in poverty leaves children disadvantaged, more likely to commit crimes, less likely to have higher paying salaries, and less likely to get higher education. Perhaps the mother is young and wanted to get an education, but now can't because she has to care for her child. This will also affect the child's chances of success. This can also lead to higher crime rates, unemployment rates, and poverty rates nationwide, all of which are issues. Let's say the mother puts the child up for adoption. The orphanage and foster system has huge impacts on children's development, especially their stress responses. Children in these systems usually have heightened stress responses (google cortisol response foster care or orphanage). These systems are abused and also lead to abuse, children moving houses constantly, and children developing serious and lifelong problems. This also would have adverse psychological consequences for the mother who had to give up their child. Republicans are not pro-life; they don't care about the lives of those affected. They don't care that an unwanted child will most likely face adversity throughout their life. They aren't willing to help the mothers who they are forcing to give birth raise the child they are forcing into the world. In fact, they want to cut government assistance and make access to programs harder. They are pro-push a baby out, and absolutely do not care what happens to that baby after.

HR7 is Utter Bullshit

Say it with me kids, "TAXPAYER DOLLARS HAVE NOT BEEN USED TO FUND ABORTIONS SINCE 1976 DUE TO THE HYDE AMENDMENT!"

This new evil passed by the House today is specifically meant to take abortion access away from low-income women. How? I'm glad you asked...

This new law, HR7, will specifically target women who buy healthcare from the marketplace. They will no longer be able to receive subsidies if they choose a health plan that covers abortion.

It will also take tax credits away from small business that choose to offer an insurance plan that cover abortion.

Because of this, insurance companies will more than likely stop offering services that cover abortion. Entirely.

The average cost of an early abortion procedure is a little under $500. The cost is pretty similar for the abortion pill. $500 can make or break a low-income family, and it shouldn't have to. Abortion is a medical procedure and a decision that should be reached between a woman and her doctor, no one else. As a medical procedure, it should be covered by insurance.

Call your senators and tell them to vote NO on HR7. It's putting an undue burden on all women, but especially low-income women.

And for the millionth time, when you limit access to abortion, you're just limiting SAFE access to abortion. Abortions will still happen safe or not.

And for the trillionth time, the best way to decrease the number of abortions is by increasing the availability of birth control/contraception and providing real, comprehensive sex-ed.
