About my ‘spilled semen’ amendment to Oklahoma’s Personhood bill | Constance Johnson

I took this stand because I’m sick of the hypocrisy of Republican lawmakers who want to police women’s reproductive healthAs a woman and a 31-year veteran of the legislative process in Oklahoma, I am increasingly offended by state law trends that solely focus on the female’s role in the reproductive process. With Oklahoma’s new, never-before-experienced Republican majority, we are seeing enactment of more and more measures that adversely affect women and their rights to access safe medical procedures when making reproductive healthcare decisions.
