There is no such thing as heartbeat at six weeks. It is a manufactured sound designed to convince people that men have the right to take control of a woman's body away from her.

The Public Record
Women deserve full citizenship, in the United States and, certainly, in the State of Georgia. And they are being denied that because of Brian Kemp's draconian six-week ban.
My plan is a five billion dollar -- to use our five billion dollar surplus, and I’m not saying use it only for this community or only to satisfy this political end.
People are anxious but they`re also -- they have a sense of urgency that things have to change. They survived COVID. They survived racial violence. They have survived an economic downturn that they weren`t expecting, but they`ve also had to grapple with government that doesn`t seem to see them or care about their future.
Georgia, unfortunately, remains ground zero for voter suppression and despite the misinformation and I would say outright disinformation delivered often by our top two leaders by the governor and by the secretary of state, the law that they passed in was not in response to any issues of voter security.
I’m worried about access to the right to vote in Georgia because we know that there are roadblocks that were put in place intentionally designed to block access.
It is wrong for the state to impose its political values on a woman`s reproductive choice.
One of the pieces of my approach to politics that is that seems to confound people is that I treat all voters as persuasion voters.
How do you get us back to safety? How do you ensure justice? How do we have economic opportunity that is real?
We demonstrated that there are voices that have long been ignored that can have volume and have effect.
I think that President Biden clearly articulated what is at stake, but I want to urge caution that we not be distracted by the carnival barkers that we see in a Donald Trump or Lindsey Graham and we ignore those who are just as dangerous to democracy like Ron DeSantis or Brian Kemp or Brad Raffensperger.
