So can my unborn human get welfare and be a dependant?

Do the parents of an unborn human get to claim child benefits? It's equally funny and scary how it seems like you guys are about to define pre- and post-birth rights for humans as a tactic to reduce the bodily autonomy of adult women.

It'll be interesting to see GOP politicians wade into this legislative battlefield and not expect that people probably want to see the rights of fetuses include healthcare and other things that greatly improve childhood outcomes.

I'm hoping there are Democrats who are prescient enough to introduce a bill guaranteeing specific care to all unborn humans so that this rhetoric can at least be used in a helpful way. You wanna fight using babies? Let's do it, fuckers.

'unborn human' sounds like some variant on undead

I hope for a good backfire of countless lawsuits asserting inalienable human rights and dependent benefits by which pregnant people may foul Arizona courts.

GOP did this same shit in Ohio. We passed our amendment anyway.
