“Confederate monuments have more bodily autonomy than women in my state, and I am so big mad about that,” said Angela Mayfield of Georgia, who is is running to replace Republican state Rep. Micah Gravley, who supported the bill.
Kelly Rose is a first-time candidate originally from Los Angeles who now lives in Georgia. She’s challenging Republican state Sen. Brian Strickland after his vote in support of the state’s extreme “heartbeat” bill that Republican Gov. Brian Kemp signed into law last month.
Rose echoed what many women have said in the days since the bill passed: that abortion bans as strict as these are not about “protecting life” but about controlling women.
“To me, [current legislation] is using ‘abortion’ to elicit an emotional response … but what I see it as is women are getting stronger and it’s a way of eliciting control over them,” Rose said.
“It’s bully behavior, and I’ve never let a bully slide in my life.”
'I am so big mad about that' - doesn't sound like she is the intellectual heavyweight needed to run parts of the country. But good luck to her good intentions
