06/30/2022 Tweet - "President Biden is absolutely right. Senate Democrats must end the filibuster and codify the right to an abortion NOW. If you allow the broken rules of the Senate to stand in the way of guaranteeing basic rights for our people, you don't really stand for those rights."
06/24/2022 Tweet - "Overturning Roe v. Wade and denying women the right to control their own bodies is an outrage and in defiance of what the American people want. Democrats must now end the filibuster in the Senate, codify Roe v. Wade, and once again make abortion legal and safe."
05/11/2022 Tweet - "It is no great secret that women throughout the history of our country have had to fight for their basic human rights against all forms of patriarchy, so today let us be absolutely clear: When it comes to women's rights, we cannot go backwards. We must go forward."
05/09/2022 Tweet - "If Republicans can end the filibuster to install right wing judges nominated by presidents who lost the popular vote in order to overturn Roe v. Wade, Democrats can and must end the filibuster to keep abortion legal and safe."
05/02/2022 Tweet - "Congress must pass legislation that codifies Roe v. Wade as the law of the land in this country NOW. And if there aren't 60 votes in the Senate to do it, and there are not, we must end the filibuster to pass it with 50 votes."
12/01/2021 Tweet - "As the Supreme Court today hears a case on Roe v. Wade, let me be very clear. It is a woman who has the right to control her own body, not the government. If men were the ones giving birth, I doubt that this would be in question."
