Date Title
01/22/2023 Tweet - "Today should've been the 50th Anniversary of Roe v. Wade. Instead, MAGA Republican officials are waging a war on women's right to make their own health care decisions. But this fight isn't over."
01/22/2023 Tweet - "I believe Roe got it right. I commit to the American people that I'll never back down in our fight to safeguard access to health care, including the right to choose. http://ReproductiveRights.gov."
10/05/2022 Tweet - "The decision overturning Roe v. Wade was never going to stop with a woman's right to choose. It extends to the right to privacy itself. And like clockwork, we're already seeing the criminalization of doctors and threats to block access to contraception."
09/23/2022 Tweet - "If you give me two more Democratic senators, and Democrats keep the House, I promise you we will codify Roe v. Wade. We will once again make Roe the law of the land. We will once again protect a woman's right to choose."
09/03/2022 Tweet - "Working-age women are now back at work at rates not seen since before the pandemic. Wages are up, and unemployment remains near a 50-year low."
08/15/2022 Tweet - "I believe Roe got it right. I commit to the American people that I'll continue doing everything in my power to safeguard access to health care, including the right to choose. Go to http://reproductiverights.gov to learn more."
08/04/2022 Tweet - "Voters in Kansas rejected extreme efforts to amend the state constitution to take away a woman's right to choose. This vote makes clear what we know: The majority of Americans agree that women should have access to abortion and the right to make their own health care decisions."
08/03/2022 Tweet - "Today I'll sign a second Executive Order to address the reproductive health care crisis since Roe was overturned. It will support women traveling for abortion care, ensure providers comply with the law when women require medical care, and advance maternal health research."
08/03/2022 Tweet - "I created the Task Force on Reproductive Healthcare Access to ensure the government acts during this moment. As medical care is denied to women. As pharmacies are unsure whether they can fill prescriptions. As rape survivors, including a 10-year-old, have to travel for care."
08/03/2022 Tweet - "I don't think the Supreme Court or for that matter Congressional Republicans -- who for decades have pushed their extremist agenda -- have a clue about the power of American women. Last night in Kansas they found out."
07/21/2022 Tweet - "Today the House voted on a bill to protect access to contraception. Almost entirely thanks to Democrats, it passed. 194 House Republicans opposed it. It's 2022. How are they opposed to access to birth control?"
07/07/2022 Tweet - "If extremist governors try to block a woman from traveling from a state that prohibits her from seeking the medical help she needs to a state that provides that care, we will act to protect her bedrock rights."
07/07/2022 Tweet - "If states try to block a woman from getting medication the FDA has already approved and that has been available for more than twenty years, we will act to protect that woman's right to that medication."
07/06/2022 Tweet - "Congress must act to codify Roe and the filibuster should not stand in the way. But right now, we don't have the votes to change the filibuster. That means we need to elect more Democratic senators and reelect our House majority in November to get this bill to my desk."
07/02/2022 Tweet - "We will protect a woman's access to medications approved by the FDA, like contraception, which is essential for preventative health care, and have taken steps to ensure that these critical medications are available to the fullest extent possible."
07/01/2022 Tweet - "Today, I was joined by a group of Governors who share my outrage at the Supreme Court's extreme decision on Roe v. Wade. They understand what's at stake, and they're doing everything in their power to protect the women they serve."
06/24/2022 Tweet - "While today's Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade puts at risk the health and lives of women across America, most states in this country still recognize a woman's right to choose. Here's what you should know."
06/23/2022 Tweet - "Today, we commemorate the 50th anniversary of Title IX, a mandate that transformed our nation. I'll continue to fight for the promise of Title IX -- that every woman and girl can pursue her education and dreams free from discrimination, and every LGBTQI+ student is protected."
05/22/2022 Tweet - "My administration will always fight for equal pay -- and while we still have more work to do, I'm glad equal pay is now a reality for the @USWNT ."
08/03/2021 Tweet - "This Black Women's Equal Pay Day, we must recognize a hard truth: it takes a Black woman nearly 20 months to earn what a white man makes in one year for the same exact work. It's unconscionable. My Administration is committed to closing the gender pay gap once and for all."
05/10/2021 Tweet - "COVID-19 has shown us just how necessary it is to center the needs of women and girls in our health care system. This National Women's Health Week, we're doubling down on our commitment to equal access to health care."
04/15/2021 Tweet - "Equal pay is about justice, fairness, and who we are as a nation -- and it makes all of us stronger. I'm glad the House passed the Paycheck Fairness Act to help close the gender pay gap -- and I urge the Senate to swiftly do the same."
04/13/2021 Tweet - "Race should never determine health outcomes -- and pregnancy and childbirth should be safe for all. But for too many Black women, safety and equity have been denied. This Black Maternal Health Week, our Administration is taking action to change that."
03/08/2021 Tweet - "Our Administration will honor the visionary women -- known and unknown -- who have helped build this country. And we'll be guided by the belief our nation is at its best when there are endless possibilities for all women and girls. #WomensHistoryMonth"
03/08/2021 Tweet - "Women's history is American history -- and world history. On #InternationalWomensDay, we celebrate the achievements, contributions, and progress of women and girls -- and recommit ourselves to the cause of equity and equality for women around the world."
