Consider Jury Nullification

[ck4829]

Here's the latest news on vibes-based conservative bans.

While Missouri House Republicans have rallied behind a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban abortion but allow some exceptions for survivors of rape and incest, a similar proposal in the Senate received push-back Wednesday from a Republican lawmaker and anti-abortion activists.

The Senate Families, Seniors and Health Committee on Wednesday heard testimony on a proposed amendment filed by state Sen. Adam Schnelting, a Republican from St. Charles. Similar legislation was filed in the House by GOP state Rep. Melanie Stinnett of Springfield.

Both proposals seek to revive Missouri’s near-total ban on abortion with one concession: an exception for victims of rape or incest who seek an abortion in the first 12 weeks gestation but who first report the assault to police. Both also ban gender-affirming health care for minors and allow abortions during an ectopic pregnancy.

While much of the opposition to Stinnett’s bill during a House hearing earlier this month came from abortion-rights advocates, Schnelting’s bill drew fire from fierce opponents of abortion.

Remember that if conservatives and Republicans make something illegal, then it is your duty to nullify it in the jury box when you can't vote it out of existence.
