We wanted to take a moment to talk about an issue that is incredibly important to Gerry and this campaign: reproductive rights.
Right now, reproductive rights are under attack across the country. After the Dobbs Decision, abortion bans are being passed around the country. Extremist Republicans are pushing to roll back the clock on decades of progress, seeking to limit access to safe and legal abortions, contraceptives, and other vital healthcare services. This fight is about more than just abortion: they're already coming for birth control and IVF.
Gerry has been a steadfast champion of reproductive rights throughout his career. He's co-sponsored legislation to reverse the Dobbs decision, always received an A from Planned Parenthood, and introduced legislation to REQUIRE insurance to cover IVF.
As Vice President, Kamala Harris has stood up against these attacks and fought to protect the rights and freedoms of all Americans. Now, as she begins her official Presidential campaign, her leadership on this issue is more crucial than ever.
