Deal-Zimmerman: Democrats have to vote smarter, not harder

In the wake of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade last month and rescinding rights most Americans thought were enshrined in our societal agreement if not in our Constitution, there’s been turmoil (to say the least) among Democrats. Is it about grassroots organizing for women’s rights or, perhaps, creating a fund to help low-income women attain abortion resources? Or maybe codifying abortion rights into federal law? Nope. Everyone agrees on the importance of a strong response to the court’s oppressive and brutal ruling, even if few can outline the best next steps.
