Issue Position: Women's Health

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2018
Issues: Women

I believe in a woman's right to choose her health care. I believe that women should have access to safe and legal procedures. Women, as any individual, have a right to autonomy over own their bodies, and to consult with skilled, empathetic physicians in the privacy of their care. I will uphold Roe v Wade as law of the land and a tenant of privacy and the right to choose one's own medical care.

In health and all matters, women cannot be treated as second class citizens. It is unthinkable to strip any individual of their rights, particularly ones that disproportionately affect marginalized communities; and especially under circumstances of abuse, incest and rape.
