Magnuson's letter to Republican colleague
editSnooganssnoogans I believe the article could be improved if the paragraph on Magnuson's letter to his Republican colleague were changed, so that we add the background information that the colleague's speech occurred in the context of favoring a rape/incest exception to anti-abortion legislation.
This change would improve the article by providing additional context behind Magnuson's action, and this fact is supported by the existing source in the fourth paragraph, as well as an article in the Charleston City Paper in the first paragraph (https://www.charlestoncitypaper.com/TheBattery/archives/2019/05/13/the-agenda-nancy-mace-targeted-by-anti-abortion-rep-over-exceptions-marriott-adding-short-term-rentals).
I do not see an issue with retaining the age of the colleague at the time, and we can keep the wording of "does not justify having an abortion" at the end of the paragraph. Please let me know your thoughts. TSBonnie2010 (talk) 00:33, 11 January 2020 (UTC)
