01/26/2023 Tweet - "Republicans in Congress are now calling for a nationwide abortion ban. The right of every woman across the country to make decisions about her own body is on the line. How dare they?"
01/25/2023 Tweet - "Our Administration has called on Congress to put the protections of Roe v. Wade into federal law. Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress are working to pass a national abortion ban that would take away reproductive freedom in all 50 states."
01/05/2023 Tweet - "It can be incredibly dangerous to be pregnant in an abortion-restricted state. I am concerned about women, like Kaitlyn, who cannot get the care they need because of laws that criminalize doctors for doing their job. These restrictions on women's bodies are absolutely shameful."
10/21/2022 Tweet - "President Biden has said he will sign a bill that would put into law the protections of Roe v. Wade if it's presented to him. If you care about reproductive health care, let your elected officials know where you stand and make your voices heard."
10/19/2022 Tweet - "This is what happens when extreme abortion bans are put into effect. Women like Amanda are left in life-threatening situations that could have otherwise been prevented. Congressional Republicans are still pushing for a national ban on abortion."
10/11/2022 Tweet - "A national abortion ban is wildly out of step with what most Americans believe in. Republicans in Congress should stay out of women's personal decisions."
09/25/2022 Tweet - "Senators are attempting to pass a national abortion ban and criminalize doctors for simply doing the job they were trained to do: Deliver health care. There's a clear disconnect with the priorities of everyday Americans."
09/24/2022 Tweet - "An Arizona law that is over 150-years-old and denies the women of Arizona access to abortion even in cases of critical health needs, rape, and incest can now be enforced. This is shameful, and dangerous."
09/21/2022 Tweet - "Any senator attempting to pass a national ban on abortion or working to criminalize health care providers is clearly disconnected from the priorities of everyday Americans."
09/18/2022 Tweet - "Republicans in Congress are officially introducing a national abortion ban. Let's be clear--any ban will harm women and prevent them from making their own health care decisions."
09/15/2022 Tweet - "A national abortion ban is wildly out of step with what the majority of Americans believe in. Republicans in Congress should stay out of women's personal decisions."
09/15/2022 Tweet - "This is the first day the women of Indiana will live under a near-total ban on abortion in decades. I've said it before, and I will say it again: the government should not be telling a woman what to do with her own body."
08/25/2022 Tweet - "Yesterday, a federal court found that Idaho's abortion ban would prevent women from receiving life-saving care, in conflict with the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act. Women in Idaho will now continue receiving life-saving care in emergencies -- including abortion care."
08/25/2022 Tweet - "Today, abortion bans are going into effect in Idaho, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas. Tomorrow, one will likely go into effect in North Dakota. The legislators who passed these extreme laws don't trust women of their states to make decisions about their bodies. @POTUS and I do."
08/06/2022 Tweet - "Indiana passed a near-total abortion ban yesterday. By the time a woman realizes she's pregnant, she will effectively be prohibited from having access to reproductive health care. This is an absolutely shameful decision made by the Indiana legislature and governor."
08/03/2022 Tweet - "The people of Kansas won a victory for freedom and liberty by standing with the majority of Americans who support a woman's right to make decisions about her own body. Last night, Kansans used their vote to protect the right to an abortion and reproductive healthcare."
07/27/2022 Tweet - "Abortion restrictions by extremist so-called leaders will disproportionately impact people with disabilities. On the anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, I convened a group of advocates to discuss the intersection of reproductive freedom and disability advocacy."
07/25/2022 Tweet - "Today, the Indiana legislature convenes for a special session to ban abortion. I am heading to Indianapolis to meet with Indiana state legislators and advocates who are fighting on the frontlines to protect reproductive rights."
07/16/2022 Tweet - "Republican legislators in Pennsylvania advanced an extremist constitutional amendment to clear the way for a ban on abortion. I am heading to Philadelphia to meet with members of the General Assembly who are fighting on the frontlines to protect reproductive rights."
07/14/2022 Tweet - "The Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade has created a health care crisis in our nation. This morning I am traveling to Orlando, Florida with @SecBecerra to meet with Florida legislative leaders to discuss steps we are taking to protect reproductive rights."
06/28/2022 Tweet - "We will do everything in our power to ensure women have access to the medication they need and the freedom to travel to get an abortion."
06/24/2022 Tweet - "Millions of women in America will go to bed tonight without access to the health care and reproductive health care they had this morning. Without access to the same health care or reproductive health care their mothers and grandmothers had for 50 years."
06/04/2022 Tweet - "If the Supreme Court overturns Roe, abortion could be banned in states across the country, putting women's lives at risk. Since day one, our position has been clear: We will defend women's constitutional rights and fight to protect the right to self-determination."
06/03/2022 Tweet - "Elected officials around the country need to protect reproductive rights with every tool they can. Yesterday, New York passed legislation that will provide legal protection to the state's abortion providers and patients. I applaud the leaders and advocates who made this happen."
05/26/2022 Tweet - "Oklahoma enacted an absolutely shameful law banning abortion yesterday. This law, which effectively outlaws abortion from the moment of fertilization and takes immediate effect, is the most extreme state law yet and threatens the fundamental rights of all women."
