After Texas' legislature passed a state law prohibiting abortions 6 weeks after conception, the whole country is furious. Some have called out SCOTUS Justices such as Justice Brett Kavanaugh for their silence, but US Rep Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-FL) has called out the state of Texas directly, calling the law "grotesque." However, Conservatives have called out Schultz for imposing a double standard, favoring vaccination to help protect babies.
Florida Democrats, including State Senator Lauren Book (D-FL), have praised Lyft, a transportation service, for trashing the new Texas abortion law. Rep. Wasserman Schultz tweeted an article by Reuters.com that reported the Lyft company will pay the legal fees for drivers that are sued under the new abortion law.
Rep. Wasserman Schultz was happy but remained vigilant that more needs to be done to counter this bill. The Congresswoman said shortly "There's a lot of ways to fight this grotesque #TexasAbortionLaw.":
There's a lot of ways to fight this grotesque #TexasAbortionLaw.
We must oppose this assault on women's rights. https://t.co/xh9y8Nozmm

However, not only has her pro-Choice stance trigger Conservative individuals, so does her apparent double standard on the young Americans.
Conservatives have blasted Wasserman Schultz for encouraging vaccines in another Tweet this week. The congresswoman stated "Higher vaccination rates can help protect our younger ones. Urge hesitant family & friends to get a shot so our children are safer."
