Why are lawmakers trying to repeal PARTS OF the Comstock Act instead of just repealing the whole horrible law? reason.com/2024/06/21/t...
The Stop Comstock Act doesn't go far enoughreason.com Upcoming legislation would repeal parts of the 1873 law that could be used to target abortion, but the Comstock Act's reach is much more broad than that.

My theory is that they know they can't get a repeal through right now(for several reasons), but if they center the parts about abortion they can continue to force the Republicans to vote against reproductive freedoms.
