Republicans vowed to override Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly's veto when lawmakers return to the Statehouse next week.
Kansas Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly has vetoed a bill that would make doctors tell patients that abortion pills may be reversible, citing its “uncertain science” that she says could harm Kansans’ health.
“In August, Kansans made clear that they believe personal healthcare decisions should be made between a woman and her doctor, not politicians in Topeka,” Kelly said in a statement. “This bill would interfere with that relationship.”
Republican leadership vowed to override Kelly’s veto when lawmakers return to the Statehouse next week.

A possible solution for the need for this medication would be vasectomies which are reversible for anyone carrying sperm.

Nailed it. GOP men love dictating what women, minorities, and immigrants can do with their bodies but suggest specific healthcare mandates they must be subjected to and they'll call you socialist, fascist, and man hater.

I feel like an anti-intellectual movement began eight or so years ago by the GOP.
