    • Abstract:
      The article argues against the idea that Republicans are trying to take away birth control. It states that contraception is already widely accessible and that there is no significant political effort to ban it. The article suggests that promoting birth control as a strategy for pro-life Republicans would be a mistake, as it would not win over new voters or counter the Democratic Party's abortion messaging. It also highlights the potential risks and side effects of hormonal contraception and the growing number of women who are opting out of it. The article concludes that adding a contraception theme to the GOP's national strategy would only create disagreement within the party and allow progressives to claim that birth control is under threat.
