@fugitive247 I believe that the top employer in that state is the state. I might be wrong because I think Walmart is there too. So any funding that provides state jobs is a win for them.
I appreciate your position, which is indeed valid. However, unless one is a cis woman living here in Arkansas, one truly cannot comprehend what it's like living as part of a litmus test for RWNJ "Christian" Conservatives. At this rate, concerns of economics don't weigh as heavily as safe, sane, and accessible maternal health care.
@fugitive247 I was thinking of it more statistically and how it was different from other states. I’m very sorry I didn’t understand or think that the article was more personal to you in your environment. Yes I agree it could be a huge life changing support system for someone in the situation you described.
