As the gentle reader is aware, abortion is a very hot topic that the Republicans are failing miserably on, and Senator Ron Johnson did them no favors on that matter.
Earlier this week, Vice President Kamala Harris once again visited Wisconsin. During her visit, she announced the White House's new policy about staffing in nursing homes and talked about reproductive health care. After Harris's visit, RoJo again brought up his suggestion for a referendum to allow voters to decide what the state's abortion policy should be. Then in usual RoJo style, he went off the deep end with it:
The Republican senator's comments came as Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris visited La Crosse to rally voters around abortion as the race for the presidency remains tight in this battleground state. Johnson advocated, as he has before, that the issue should be decided via referendum.
"We need to understand, first of all, what an abortion looks like at every stage of pregnancy. We've not had that discussion, which is why I recommended a referendum to ask that question: at what point does society have the responsibility to protect life?" Johnson told reporters.
