Mark Takano: “I am outraged. I am outraged because, in 2022, women are still fighting for their reproductive rights. I am outraged…”

“I am outraged. I am outraged because, in 2022, women are still fighting for their reproductive rights. I am outraged that women do not have autonomy over their bodies. Their bodies belong to them, not Supreme Court Justices, not politicians, and not anyone else. I am outraged that, despite the fact that the majority of Americans support legal abortion, the Senate has voted against the bill that codifies Roe and protects access to abortion. What these political hacks on the Supreme Court and politicians do not realize is that striking down Roe v. Wade will not end abortion. It will simply end safe access to abortion, and women's lives will be at risk. If you are not equally enraged, you are not paying attention. ____________________”
