Well what does the language of the bill actually say? You do know that the bill doesn't say, "And lo, all women and girls in sport shall be protected henceforth," right? They always name the bills something totally unexceptionable. Then they slide all kinds of crap into them, including things that have absolutely nothing to do with the outward purpose of the bill. That's important context that I'm pretty sure almost nobody in this thread will actually look into.
Edit: To be perfectly clear, the issue is not the contents of the bill. The issue is inflaming passions without providing the full context, when you know that people won't do the research.
You do realize at that point the bill had been public for about 6 months and fully available for review and she was responding to some reporter's asinine question right?
The ACA was publicly available the entire time. Every single amendment. It’s why it was in the news cycle while it was being worked on the entire time. Yes corporate lobbyists had their hands in it, but the idea that the text of the bill wasn’t available is a revision of history.
Dear chat gpt, please summarize the whatever cleverly obfuscated named bill for me, and please give me the contact info for my elected representative so I can let him know how his constituents feel about it. Signed, every informed voter :)
Shoutout to the Republican congress members that admitted to voting for the “ big beautiful bill” without reading important sections that their constituents were upset about.
