Republican leaders are at war, pursuing the issues that they believe are wrong as a backlash towards the control of the Democrats in their states.
GOP lawmakers are using their power to discuss laws involving gun rights and abortion restrictions in their states.
Many individuals are afraid of the backlash from supporters of Trump, pushing them to reject Republican candidates who do “not stand for our values”.
Donald Kettl, a public-policy professor located at the University of Texas at Austin, tells sources that “All the forces of anger, part economic, part social, that were there to begin with are still alive, still building, and still in the process of trying to transform the Republican Party.
Lawmakers are hoping that they are allowed to challenge these issues that have to deal with new laws. For example, Texas, South Carolina, Idaho, and Oklahoma have already passed legislation that bans abortion as early as six weeks into the pregnancy.
As for red state Arkansas, they have passed a law that makes abortion a felony unless it is done to save the life of the mother in a medical emergency.
The laws are facing court challenges and they are hoping that these cases will make their way to the Supreme Court, but this means that the conservative majority would overturn Roe v Wade and reverse history.
Red states have also put into action for gun rights, allowing legal gun owners to walk around without a permit. The governor of Florida has also sparked speculation, hoping for Trump to win the presidential election in 2024.
The state has also passed laws to restrict transgender individuals from playing on the other side of the team. They are going to “make sure that that’s the reality,” and some states that are on the same boat are Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Montana, Tennessee, and West Virginia.
Many states are trying to push stricter laws to prevent voter fraud, but critics claim that this would actually infringe on voting rights. There are at least 14 states that have already pushed forward with 22 new laws that restrict “access to the vote.”
Many of the Republicans wanted to portray their characteristics as the business-minded pragmatists, pushing for a rightward idea.
