01/22/2023 Tweet - "President Biden and I agree: We will not back down from protecting reproductive freedom. We know this fight will not be won until we secure the right to reproductive freedom for every American. Congress must pass a bill that protects freedom, liberty, and reproductive rights."
01/22/2023 Tweet - "Today should have been the 50th Anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Instead, extremist so-called leaders have taken away a woman's fundamental freedom to make decisions about her own body. This afternoon, I'm speaking in Tallahassee, Florida about our fight ahead."
01/22/2023 Tweet - "Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, abortion is now banned in more than a dozen states. Extremists in state legislatures are calling for more restrictions as Congressional Republicans push a national ban. This must stop. @POTUS and I are fighting back--and we will win."
01/18/2023 Tweet - "Last week, House Republicans passed an extreme bill that would further jeopardize the right to reproductive health care in our nation. This is yet another attempt by Republican legislators to control women's bodies."

10/04/2022 Tweet - "Congressional Republicans are fighting to pass an extreme national abortion ban that will criminalize providers, take away reproductive rights, and put women's health at risk. The message is clear. We're fighting to protect your rights, while they work to take them away."
10/02/2022 Tweet - "Following the Dobbs decision, extremist so-called leaders across our nation began to pass and enforce laws to criminalize doctors, nurses, and health care providers. We must do everything we can to fight for reproductive rights."
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."
