Sen. Judy Eason McIntyre, a Democrat from Tulsa, joined protesters of a proposed fetal personhood bill Tuesday on the north steps of the state Capitol. She held a sign that said, “If I wanted the government in my womb I'd f --- a senator.”

“When I saw that sign out of all of those signs, I was like, I've got to have a picture of it,” said McIntyre, D-Tulsa. “I thought if my 87-year-old mother sees this, I'm going to get hell this weekend, but it was too late.”
McIntyre was one of hundreds protesting anti-abortion legislation on the north steps of the Capitol.

She said the sign was brought by protesters from the University of Oklahoma and she grabbed it for a photo.

She said that while the language would probably be offensive to some, the real issue is the Republican Party attempting to take away the reproductive rights of women while at the same time preaching less government.

“I would hope they would have that same passion about how offensive it is for the Republican Party of Oklahoma to ramrod, because they have votes to do so, bills that are offensive to women and take away the rights of women,” she said.

Senate Bill 1433 declares that life begins at conception. The bill, introduced by Sen. Brian Crain, R-Tulsa, has passed the Senate and is waiting to be heard in the House.
