Political Quotes

“If you thought the 114th Congress would be different, think again. If you thought Republicans were ready to put partisan politics behind them, think again. If you thought they had finally ended their war on women, think again. Last night, thanks to Republican women and their supporters, the Republicans abandoned their effort to pass a 20-week abortion ban even for women who were victims of rape or incest. But instead of respecting women this morning, the Republicans are coming back to the floor again, this time attempting to deny women access to their constitutionally protected right to safe and legal abortions by restricting coverage to abortions--including in private plans purchased with women's private dollars. This is harmful to women and continues to ignore the American people, who believe that women and their doctors should make important medical decisions, not politicians. Roe v. Wade wasn't the beginning of women having abortions. It was the end of women dying from abortions. ____________________”
