Arizona Dem St. Sen.: After Abortion Ban, Birth Control Is Next, This Is a Ball That’s Going to Continue Rolling

EXCERPT:

BURCH: "That is absolutely the case. And what an excellent and important point to make that we have to start believing these people when they tell us what they’re going to do to us, because consistently that’s what’s been happening. We just tried to bring a bill to the Senate floor just to protect access to birth control, and they wouldn’t even hear it. We had a bill on the House side that would have repealed this ban, and they wouldn’t even hear it. So when they are telling us that we’re not even going to talk about protecting birth control, we should believe that that’s what they’re coming for next. We have to understand that this is a ball that’s going to continue rolling and that there’s one way out. The one way out is to stop electing these really extremist Republicans who end up being the ones who are calling the shots and who are in charge. They’re not representative of the majority of Arizonians, including independents and Republicans, but that’s going to continue to happen if we don’t make changes in November."
