As we watch the news unfold, here's what I know: We must strengthen the Senate majority and immediately take up and pass the Women’s Health Protection Act to codify Roe once and for all.
Reproductive rights are human rights, full stop. But the truth is my opponents don't feel the same way. They want to take personal freedoms and decisions out of the individual's hands. It seems they would want to place government mandates on private decisions and mandate pregnancies. I’m not sure that any of them have really thought this kind of a retrograde policy all the way through in terms of its likely implications. This is what we're fighting against in November, friend.
I won't give up on this. As a mom, teacher, and a veteran, I've spent my time in Congress advocating for women, making sure they have equity and the fundamental right to make their own health decisions. And I promise to continue that fight when I'm reelected.
