11/08/2022 Tweet - "Republicans want to pass a national abortion ban with virtually no exceptions and deny emergency medical treatment for women experiencing serious pregnancy complications. They want complete control over women's bodies. Not on our watch."
10/18/2022 Tweet - "Republicans across the country, with help from SCOTUS, have unleashed a full scale assault on women's reproductive health care. If given the chance, a national abortion ban is next. @HouseDemocrats are committed to #DefendWomensRights against these dangerous attacks."

07/08/2022 Tweet - "Today, the Biden-Harris Admin took significant action to safeguard access to reproductive health care and protect patients and providers. This Executive Order must be matched with action in Congress. @HouseDemocrats will continue fighting to protect women's right to choose."

05/11/2022 Tweet - "Today the Senate will vote on the Women's Health Protection Act -- pivotal legislation to codify Roe v. Wade into law and protect women's bodily autonomy. Reproductive rights are a part of ensuring everyone has access to health care. I urge the Senate to secure this basic right."
01/22/2022 Tweet - "States across the country are unleashing a full scale assault on women's right to choose. As we mark the 49th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, we must continue to safeguard women's fundamental autonomy over their bodies."

05/16/2019 Tweet - "The legislation passed in Alabama this week is a blatant attack on women's rights and part of a clear agenda to dismantle Roe v. Wade. Women are the only ones who have the right to decide what they do with their bodies."

01/22/2019 Tweet - "Today is the 46th anniversary of #RoevWade, where @SCOTUS made the landmark decision recognizing that women have the right to make their own health decisions. We must keep fighting to protect women's rights so that they can continue to have access to reproductive health care."
