    The other side wants to take these issues to the extreme to say that women have gone too far with their own health care choices. Do you really want the government making that decision for Americans? Or should women and their physicians decide. (2/2)

    I ask my colleagues, what are you thinking when you advocate for a return to pre-Roe? You’re going to leave women without the ability to control their own bodies & their ability to make their own decisions with their doctors. (1/2)

    What are employers going to do? Are people going to want to work at federal agencies like NASA in Florida or Texas if that state doesn’t protect reproductive health? Or are we going to have a brain drain because people won’t want to live & work in states that ban abortion.

    Elevated pump prices are driving inflation & they're wreaking havoc on American households and their budgets. This is why we are drafting legislation that will protect consumers and make transportation fuel markets more fair and transparent. (1/2)

    Proud to fight alongside my Democratic colleagues to protect the right to abortion & reproductive health care. The American people believe that we can make laws to protect an individual right to privacy & that is also part of determining what we as women do with our own bodies.

    NEW: Washington’s highest ranking elected leaders spoke out forcefully Tuesday against a draft opinion from the U.S. Supreme Court that, if finalized, would overturn Roe v. Wade and spell the end of legal abortion in much of the United States.

    All women deserve the right to determine what they do with their own bodies. 50 years of precedent established by Roe has allowed women to choose if and when they become Mothers. This we must act to protect the right to full reproductive care for all Americans. (2/2)

    The Supreme Court caused a political earthquake this week. Women are not second class citizens and we are not criminals. If Roe is overturned, are employers prepared to have extra money in their budget so people can travel to a state to receive health care?
