Mr. Matlock needs to remember that more government regulation on women's health isn't going to help women-- and it won't prevent abortions. What we need is affordable childcare, affordable healthcare, and sexual health education, not pointless legislation. (4/6)

What do we need to prevent abortions? Contraception. Sex Ed. Paid maternity leave. Ending pregnancy discrimination. Affordable healthcare, prenatal and postpartum. WIC. Access to childcare. When politicians start bickering about $11K in funding, they are avoiding reality. (5/6)

Being pro-life does not mean just being pro-birth. We need good-faith policies that help all Tennessee families, especially those struggling to get by. I pledge to fight in Congress for women and children.
