Missouri Gov. Mike Parson said he has no plans to call a special legislative session to protect access to contraceptives and address ectopic pregnancies. Democratic leaders called on the governor to hold a special session now that the state has banned nearly all abortions.
Missouri Gov. Mike Parson said Thursday that he will not call a special session to pass legislation to protect access to contraceptives and the ability of doctors to treat ectopic pregnancies.
Senate Minority Leader John Rizzo, D-Kansas City, and House Minority Leader Crystal Quade, D-Springfield, called on the governor earlier this week to hold a special session to clarify that doctors can still help patients whose pregnancies are not viable and that birth control remains legal now that the state bans abortions.

You don't need special permission or law to deal with ectopic pregnancies...they are unviable and an emergency threat to the mother's life. They are not banned anywhere.
---- You might want to educate yourself on some of the laws in these states because yes, it is affecting ectopic pregnancies. There are multiple stories of people who are getting denied care for ectopic pregnancies because there's a "fetal heartbeat" detected or doctors are waiting until the hospital lawyers say it's ok to go ahead with it because of these new laws.
Wake up Charlie. They will NEVER pick you and they don't care about you. I guess since you can no longer have a pregnancy that's why you don't care but you should. Pick me's like you make things harder for the rest of us. I get it - I've been there. I used have all that internalized misogyny you have but I got rid of it. I realized I don't need to be picked by them.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel Governor Parsons isn't to be trusted to make logical decisions IMHO. Never trusted or liked him since he was first elected.
