My Values:
I never thought I would see the day when an activist Supreme Court majority rolled back 50 years of legal precedent, stripping millions of American women of their fundamental rights, but that day has come. The conservative Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade allowed states to make laws banning abortions, even in cases of rape and incest. This is not who we are. The decision about whether and when to start a family is between a woman, her family, her doctor, and her faith – not governments or politicians. I will not stop fighting until every woman’s fundamental right to control her own body is protected and Roe is restored.
What I’ve Done:
I voted to codify Roe v. Wade at the federal level to protect and restore the right to choose.
I helped pass the Ensuring Access to Abortion Act to protect the right to travel for abortion care.
