Minimum Wage Affordable Housing

homeless, and lack of affordable, and satisfactory
housing for the homeless. Poverty and homelessness

back on, no blue and white card to show the
emergency room when...

to the individual to decide whether or not an
abortion is right for them. On the other hand,
pro-life supporters argue that a fetus is a human
being, and that abortion is murder. The debate has
focused primarily on these two arguments, but
