Vance urged DOJ to enforce Comstock Act, crack down on abortion pills

j brown's body said:

"Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio), newly tapped as the GOP vice-presidential nominee, last year joined an effort to enforce the Comstock Act, the 151-year-old federal law that has become a lightning rod in the nation’s abortion debate.

The Comstock Act, which bans the mailing of abortion-related materials, has not been invoked for that purpose in about a century. The Biden administration maintains that its provisions are outdated today. But some Republicans have attempted to resurrect the law to limit or effectively ban abortion nationwide, a position that Vance and other lawmakers conveyed to Attorney General Merrick Garland in a January 2023 letter.

“We demand that you act swiftly and in accordance with the law, shut down all mail-order abortion operations,” Vance and about 40 fellow Republican lawmakers wrote. The Republicans called on the Justice Department to potentially prosecute physicians, pharmacists and others “who break the Federal mail-order abortion laws,” citing additional federal laws that apply to criminal conspiracy and money laundering."

We can expect a national ban on abortion pills through the mail if Trump is elected.

J.D. Vance Endorsed a National Abortion Ban in the Grossest Way Possible

Trump’s running mate J.D. Vance said a national abortion ban was necessary to keep George Soros from flying “Black women” to California for abortions.

Vance is a real piece of work.

He stalked Harris. Despite the Republican Six's ruling that abortion "should be up to the states", vance wants a nationwide ban AND the prosecution of physicians, pharmacists, and others.

Yesterday I wondered how safe his wife and kids are (from him). The more I find out about him, the more I suspect he could be a predator.
