Hello Readers,

Roe v. Wade was struck down by SCOTUS. Now, only the states can decide abortion. However, the states do not have money enough to fund Planned Parenthood and other organizations. If some states approve abortions to be legal, then it should be up to the people to pay for their own abortions. If there is rape or incest, then the states should consider allocating money for abortions, or also if the person is under the age 15, or as they are too young to understand the life changing severity after the birth of a child.

Planned Parenthood received $528.4 million from the government, $391.8 million from private supporters, $305 million from non-government services and $77.9 million from other sources according to news. They contributed to Federal candidates through the Planned Parenthood PAC, about $746,595 in 2021, as well as all contributions given to the Democratic candidates, including President Biden.

Also, many top executives donated much more money to candidates. That is why democrats are eager to support abortion programs. If abortion is a right, as they say, then 0 dollars should be given to anyone, including the insurance companies. Those who wants to have an abortion must raise their own money (not supported by taxpayers), other than the mentioned exceptions, and let’s find out how many abortions will be done in a year, compared to 2021.

Per Independent UK News: “Texas attorney general Ken Paxton says he is planning to prosecute corporations that pay for employees to travel interstate to access abortion care. ‘It’s actually a new concept for us – these corporations deciding to pay for people to go get their abortions,’ Mr Paxton said in an interview with NewsNation. He said the penalties for businesses that support their employees having abortions could be in excess of $100,000. ‘We’re looking at that literally as we speak,’ he said. Dozens of American companies including Disney, Apple, JP Morgan Chase, Adidas and Airbnb are guaranteeing abortion benefits for their employees in the aftermath of the US Supreme Court voting to overturn Roe v. Wade.”

The gun law passed in New York that placed restrictions on carrying guns has been reversed by SCOTUS. It is hard enough for elected officials to restrict guns on the streets of the United States. I believe that by implementing a no guns policy for those age 20 and under and complete verification to issue guns for those above 21 will immediately solve a lot of problems. The next step would be to control the street guns.

Also, SCOTUS made rulings allowing states to intervene on Native American land, and that it is allowable to pray in a school setting, after ruling in favor of a football coach who prayed on the field. The real test will be when someone of a non-Christian faith (Islam, etc.) wants to pray, as according to SCOTUS, they should be allowed to do so now.

Company with over 100 employees will have a new rule under OSHA reporting to protect employees for work related injuries. The coalition-backed new rule would update current reporting regulations with important new amendments that call for more extensive reporting to OSHA by employers. Among other things, the rule would require certain employers with more than 100 employees in high-risk industries to annually submit three forms to OSHA 3 pages form electronically – a Log of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses (OSHA Form 300), an Injury and Illness Report (OSHA Form 301), and the summary information (OSHA Form 300A).

Finally, R. Kelly was sentenced to 30 years in prison by a Brooklyn, which does not include what he faces in Chicago when a trial begins there. Also, Ghislaine Maxwell, a former confidant of Jeffrey Epstein, got 20 years in prison. Both of them went from lifestyles of the rich and famous to decades behind bars for sex crimes.

Have a wonderful week, I’ll talk to you next week.
