I didn't realize when I scheduled it that it was the anniversary of Roe v. Wade.
!!!!!!!!!! Oh, my deepest sympathies. That was the height of the Operation Rescue stuff too, IIRC, without any of the safe zone safeguards we have now.
Nevertheless, I'm going to be in my orange vest the Saturday before and after.
I'm personally torn - I want the amendment dropped, but I'm wondering if it's more important to pass healthcare and then fix it than have the right bill shot down and nothing happen at all.
