Let me make it plain: abortion care is health care and a global human right. That means abortion is a fundamental right that belongs to EVERY person EVERY where.
I'm not slowing down my fight to protect abortion access. That's why Representatives Jan Schakowsky, Barbara Lee, Diana DeGette, Norma Torres, Marilyn Strickland, Senator Cory Booker, and I joined together to re-introduce the Abortion is Health Care Everywhere Act.
This important legislation would repeal the harmful Helms Amendment and allow for the expansion of abortion care globally. We're up against a coordinated GOP assault on reproductive justice, so I'm asking:
For 50 years, the Helms Amendment has stood in the way of comprehensive reproductive care for people around the world by preventing U.S. foreign assistance from being used to provide abortion care or even counsel people on care options. It's just one of many ways policies have limited reproductive freedom, especially for Black and brown people.
It's time we pass the Abortion is Health Care Everywhere Act to repeal the racist, dangerous Helms Amendment and affirm abortion justice around the world.
Thank you for your support and partnership in the fight for reproductive rights.
In solidarity,
Ayanna Pressley
