Measure allows parent to seek child support up to a year after giving birth to retroactively cover pregnancy expenses
The Republican-led Kentucky senate voted overwhelmingly on Tuesday to grant the right to collect child support for fetuses, advancing a bill that garnered bipartisan support despite nationwide fallout from a controversial Alabama decision also advancing “fetal personhood”.
The measure would allow a parent to seek child support up to a year after giving birth to retroactively cover pregnancy expenses. The legislation – Senate Bill 110 – won senate passage on a 36-2 vote with little discussion to advance to the House. Republicans have supermajorities in both chambers.
The world is better now than at any point previously in history (except maybe the 90s). The only reason things sound worse is that we have global news now.
What point is there in trying to make a better future if none of us have kids? Who are we trying to fix climate change for, our geriatric asses?
Kids are emblematic of hope for a better future – that society can build and create something that we won’t benefit from, but our descendants will. I’d go as far as to say they should be the mascot of leftism and progressives. Everything we do should be to give them a better world than we had. It’s all moot otherwise.
How is this down voted? You hit the nail on the head.
