FTFY, because I think this is an important distinction.
America now has a two-tier health care system for women, determined by which political party is in power in each state. All because the corrupt conservative majority that controls our broken SCOTUS decided to allow individual states to take away a constitutional right that all women in this country had for almost 50 years.
I live in a blue state where doctors are still allowed to provide health care services for people of all genders without a bunch of ignorant politicians telling them what services they can provide to which patients, and the contrast between here and places like Texas is stark.
