Betsy DeVos just compared being pro-choice to being pro-slavery. I am
outraged because this is outrageous.

As a Black woman and the Chair of the abortion access Congressional Task
Force, I invite Betsy to come by my office and make that comparison to my
face. I would welcome the opportunity to educate her.

It’s sadly unsurprising that Betsy DeVos would accuse the millions of
advocates, activists, and people in this country who support the right to
bodily autonomy of being comparable to those who supported the brutal
enslavement of black and brown bodies. It shows the deep and willful
ignorance of this Administration, and their willingness to invoke
dangerous, racist language to support their own cruel and inhumane agenda.

Their dangerous, wrong-headed rhetoric and policies are why our movement
is fighting each and every day to protect reproductive freedom and the
fundamental rights of everyone in our communities.

Collectively, we must unequivocally condemn Betsy DeVos’ outrageous
statement and hold her accountable for invoking the legacy of slavery to
attack an individual's right to choose.

Thank you for standing with me today. Together, we will continue to fight
for justice.

In Solidarity,

Ayanna Pressley
