The tweet added, "Protecting abortion access is an urgent matter of racial and economic justice."
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Of course, the tweet about protecting various people made no mention of the lives saved by abortion bans: those of unborn children. Conservatives slammed the ACLU over this. Other Twitter users wondered aloud how LGBTQ people are affected and some even criticized the fact that the organization made no mention of "women" in any way whatsoever.
Washington Times columnist Tim Young tweeted, "How can LGBTQ people... who for the most part can't breed... be disproportionately harmed by abortion bans? Did I miss some new sCiEnCe??"

Daily Wire investigative reporter Luke Rosiak tweeted, "In case you weren't convinced communists just vomit the words ‘racism’ and ‘homophobia’ to get what they want, without rubbing two brain cells together first: They're saying the problem with restricting abortion is it would ‘disproportionately harm’ the ‘LGBTQ community.’"
And UK writer Mandy Rhodes slammed the ACLU’s omission of women and reminded her audience of a previous time the organization did so. "Eh, WOMEN…the same ACLU that on the 1st anniversary of the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, took a famous quote of hers about the right of women to carry a child or not and altered the pronouns to fit with modern sensitivities around gender neutrality."
