A senseless tragedy, wholly preventable. This woman's life was less important to ghouls in the NC Gen Assembly than grandstanding on #abortion to earn brownie points with the base. They restricted access, tighter and tighter.

She died in Greensboro, NC. Shocking.

It doesn’t help that 80+% of the PPB don’t live in Portland, or even Multnomah County.
