The Vote On Amendment 2 In My View

What Does Each Vote Mean?

I don’t have the political expertise to give expert opinion on any given national topic. I didn’t study politics in college. I don’t read every political journal that may come my way. I listen to various news sources and occasionally will read further upon an item of curiosity. I do not get my news from Facebook or Twitter. I strive not to be too ignorant.

However, I am certain where I stand politically, socially, and culturally. That place would be somewhat left of center. I don’t do fantasy in real life. I don’t push myself into other people’s lives. And I especially don’t judge other people. It’s hard enough to judge myself. Lastly, I don’t understand the thought processes that go with calling yourself a thing and then acting against the morals and principles of that thing you call yourself. How does that work?

I am also certain where I stand about the abortion issue that is up for a vote on August 2. Amendment 2 is only about taking away a basic fundamental human right and makes about half of the population of Kansas second-class citizens. It is misogyny in its rawest form, and the Republicans who have brought this about belong in the 19th Century.

While this will create a real burden for women in its immediacy, it will also open the door for government intervention in all manner of privacy issues that will affect not only women, but the LGBTQ community, people of color, the poor, and yes, even white men.

I cannot urge people enough to vote this down. I cannot overstate the urgency and importance of voting in this one particular election, and of course every election. The Republican legislators scheduled this Constitutional Amendment vote specifically because they believe that very few people will participate in the primary elections. And they are correct – usually.

Everyone in the state of Kansas needs to get out and say no to this egregious travesty.

As I said above, I don’t have the knowledge needed to cover this issue.

What I know about politics in Kansas and abortion rights is eclipsed by many others. I reached out to the League of Women Voters Lawrence-Douglas County and asked their permission to share what they have put together in response to this attempt to take away our rights.

- David Sloan

A “NO” vote would keep the Bill of Rights in the Kansas Constitution as is, affirming the legal precedent established in Hodes & Nauser v. Schmidt (2019) that a woman has a natural and fundamental right to continue or to end a pregnancy. The Kansas Supreme Court ruled that this is not an absolute right and can be limited by legislative action if there is a compelling state interest and if the law is narrowly tailored to promote that interest.

Additional Resources Regarding the Amendment:

A ”YES” vote would amend the Kansas Constitution to state that there is no right in the Kansas constitution to abortion nor requirement that there be government funding for abortion. The state legislature would have the authority to pass laws regarding abortion including, but not limited to, instances where the pregnancy is a result of rape, incest, or necessary to protect the life of the mother. Such laws could not be challenged as being “non-constitutional.”

What you should know about current abortion law in Kansas: • There is no public funding or private health insurance funding for abortion in Kansas unless the pregnant person’s life is threatened.

• Abortion after 22 weeks (viability) is already banned.

• Parental consent is already required.

• A 24-hour waiting period is required.

• The Kansas Board of Healing Arts has requirements for all clinics, physicians, procedures, and prescription protocol, including for abortion as it is a medical procedure.

• If Roe v. Wade (1973) is overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court, all questions about abortion will be sent back to the states. If this amendment also passes, there will be no Constitutional basis for any abortion rights in Kansas.

What other rights, in addition to abortion, have been decided based on the right to privacy?

• Contraceptives • In-vitro fertilization

• Marriage (interracial, same-sex) • Bodily autonomy

Frequently Asked Questions: Who gets abortions in the United States?

According to a 2019 study conducted by the CDC, there is no specific demographic group who get abortions. However there are a few statistics that should be highlighted. 60% of the people getting abortions already have children. 58% of patients who get abortions have never had abortions before. Crucially, 92% of abortions happen in the first trimester (conception to twelve weeks).

These statistics were taken from the New York Times article, “Who Gets Abortions in America?”.

Do patients who get abortions use contraceptives?

51% of people who got abortions in 2014 were using contraceptives. The most commonly used forms of contraception were condoms (24% of patients) and the pill (13% of patients). Out of the 37.8 million U.S. women and girls aged 15-44 who were using contraception, there were only 471,000 abortions were provided to contraception users.

Information provided by the Guttmacher Institute article, “About Half of U.S. Abortion Patients Report Using Contraception in the Month They Became Pregnant”. To read more, scan the code or go to https://lwvk.org/

Do patients who get abortions suffer mentally?

A report released by the journal Social Science & Medicine in January of 2020 found that 99% of women said having an abortion was the right choice 5 years later. New research has even found that patients feel a sense of relief after they have an abortion.

Statistics provided by the Healthline article “99% of Women Say They Feel Relief, Not Regret, 5 Years After Having an Abortion”. To read more, scan the code or go to https:// lwvk.org/

Which Kansas Legislators agreed to put women’s constitutional rights up for a vote?

It was a party-line vote in the Senate – all Republicans present voted to approve the amendment ( Republican Senator Bud Estes was absent) and all Democrats voted NAY. Read more about the Senate vote information here.

It was a party-line vote in the House – all Republicans voted to approve the amendment and all Democrats present voted NAY (Democratic Representative Virgil Weigal was absent).
