Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, I rise in opposition to a Texas judge's attack on women's reproductive freedom. This ruling undermines proven scientific research and needlessly restricts women's access to healthcare. Mifepristone is a safe and effective medication that has been used by millions since it was approved by the FDA two decades ago. Medical determinations should be left to medical professionals. I am thankful for the work of the Healey administration in my home State to insulate Massachusetts residents from this decision. The Commonwealth must not let Texas set the agenda for women's healthcare. I also strongly support the work of organizations like Mayday Health, who are informing and empowering women to make their own decisions about their reproductive health and working to get the medication across State lines. On the Federal level, I joined my colleagues in submitting an amicus brief to the Supreme Court urging them to protect a woman's right to choose. I will not stop fighting to ensure access to safe, effective reproductive healthcare for all Americans. ____________________”
