I was deeply disappointed to see the Hyde Amendment included in the House
Labor Health and Human Services funding bill last week.
Let me be clear, discriminatory abortion bans like the Hyde Amendment are
blatantly racist and perpetuate systems of oppression and white supremacy
that target people of color — especially Black and Brown people — and
their bodily autonomy. Repealing the Hyde Amendment is a racial justice
issue.

For generations, the Hyde Amendment has restricted the constitutional
right to safe and legal abortion care for millions — disproportionately
impacting our most vulnerable, low-income, Black, Brown and Indigenous
communities.
We know that women of color are frequently denied access to medical care
across the board. Their pain is delegitimized and their lives devalued by
a broken, for-profit health care system.
When I say it is time to legislate our values and write budgets that
affirm the dignity and worth of Black and Brown lives, I mean it.
[ [link removed] ]Add your name now to demand that the House of Representatives votes to
remove the Hyde Amendment from this bill.
Thank you for joining me in the fight for justice,
