Pregnant, and No Civil Rights – NYTimes.com.

We’ve managed to get equal civil rights for African-Americans and for women, and we’re getting closer for LGBT folks.  None of these has been perfect in implementation, but we keep working at it.

Now, a sub-class of women – pregnant women – must begin demanding their civil rights as American citizens. They already HAVE those rights – but recent laws are stripping them away.

This is real.

And it has to stop.
