Demonstrations & blockades at clinics have…peaked, Ziegler said, when #abortion opponents do not have other paths to exercise #power. That’s not the case now…w/ #Republicans controlling all 3 branches of govt & in general embracing an #antiabortion platform.
“It’s interesting & important that the court isn’t just going to take a wrecking ball to every abortion-related precedent….But there’s plenty of reason to think the court could still find bubble or buffer laws it doesn’t like.”

Ms. Magazine · Trump’s Second Term Blueprint: Using the Helms Amendment to Enforce Total Global Abortion BansThe Helms Amendment turns 51 years old on Dec. 17. As the second Trump administration gets underway, Project 2025 looks to Helms as a tool.At the same time, there’s also a bill pending in Congress to repeal the Helms Amendment: the Abortion is Healthcare Everywhere Act—led in the House by Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) and in the Senate by Cory Booker (D-N.J.)—which would remove Helms’ language from the Foreign Assistance Act and specify that U.S. foreign assistance funding can be used for the provision of abortion in countries where abortion is legal.
