Democratic Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is vowing that her city will be an "oasis" for abortions if Roe v. Wade is overturned.

On Monday, Lightfoot announced a "Justice For All Pledge" dedicating $500,000 towards access to abortion care in her city including transportation and lodging for women coming in from out of state, declaring Chicago an "island of reproductive freedom" and a "safe haven" in the Midwest.(snip)

Appearing on MSNBC, Lightfoot called on mayors across the country to join her pledge.

"Fundamentally, it reaffirms Chicago as a welcoming city, a city that doesn't discriminate and a city that's going to stand with women," Lightfoot said.

When asked if $500,000 would be enough to support women who come in from out of state, Lightfoot asserted that the price tag is a "down payment" to address the "immediate hurdles" for frontline workers.

She's gone full-on demonic.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Just as it is an oasis for shootings and other crimes.

[Rurudyne]

Yep, everything about the abortion industry, homosexual mafia and transgender insanity has its roots in demonic powers. The DNC is host to evil spiritual forces.

[philman_36]

She's quick out of the gate.
The State's legislators have a say in all of this
and they are definitely above her pay grade.

Oasis Sewer

I just love these two bit local politicians. We have them around here too. They are all about the sea turtles and the Somali refugees, but do you think they could fix the f@#king pot holes?

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

They no longer care about working taxpayers anymore.

Let's see if we can be the first to pray her off the island.

[Sacajaweau]

I believe NYS said they were an abortion loving state a couple years back..and did pass a law saying...come one and all....kill your baby...and the tab is on us.

The lightfoot version of Disneyland for the kill-a-kid crowd.

[mykroar]

They already practice extreme late term abortion.

[laplata]

She sure has. What a vile, nasty, ugly reprehensable, repulsive creature she is.

[Paladin2]

She’s running an Insurrection.

All the way through the 90th trimester.

[stars & stripes forever]

The State's legislators have a say in all of this and they are definitely above her pay grade.

Illinois has a Democrat super-majority with a governor who vowed it would be the most pro-abortion state in the nation.

[gdzla]

This moron hasn't a clue. Overturning RvW means that the states will be the deciding factor. Each state will have jurisdiction to make that decision for itself just as the constitution directs. Abortion WILL NOT be made illegal unless a state passes a law (FOR THAT STATE ONLY) saying so and that will not happen.
Jeez the ignorance is overwhelming.

[pacificus]

Exactly, she’s pro murder, and has the record to prove it!

Every week I see the Chicago shooting stats, and I’m amazed she’s still alive.

I mean all of those shootings, and none of the bullets can find lightfoot?

I find that very curious.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Well since Chicago is the murder capitol this is fitting

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

Ignorance is her claim to fame.

[Nextrush]

If you can get past the bullets in the streets you can make it to the abortion....sarc
