Office:
Date Title
10/27/2022 Tweet - "A woman's right to choose is on the ballot. Make a plan to vote."
10/10/2022 Tweet - "It's unacceptable that my daughters' generation has less right to reproductive health care than mine did. We're going to keep pushing ahead on expanding access to health care for women."
08/04/2022 Tweet - "American women are clear: no government mandates should stand in the way of their right to make their own health care decisions. I stand firmly with women and will keep voting to protect access to health care."
07/11/2022 Tweet - "I intend to keep standing up for a woman's right to choose -- that's why I've led advocacy to Google and cosponsored a law that would crack down on abortion-related search results. There's far more to be done, but this is an important start."
06/27/2022 Tweet - "It's incomprehensible that generations of women now have fewer rights than they were born with. Access to making your own health care decisions is a fundamental, established right, and I will keep working to protect that."
06/24/2022 Tweet - "This decision jeopardizes the health and autonomy of millions of American women and turns back the clock on nearly 50 years of settled and reaffirmed law -- reflecting a Court that has increasingly issued politicized rulings that undermine the fundamental rights of Americans.(1/4)"
06/07/2022 Tweet - "57 years ago today, SCOTUS established that a right to privacy protected birth control. Now they're poised to overturn Roe -- and I think it's possible that birth control could be under attack next. Women deserve access to the care they need. I will vote to protect that."
06/04/2022 Tweet - "On this day in 1919, the Senate passed the 19th Amendment -- a monumental step forward for women's rights. I'm disappointed that 103 years later, the Senate is stalling on both protecting the right to vote and a woman's right to access abortion."
06/03/2022 Tweet - "With a relentless news cycle, there isn't as much talk recently about the upcoming Dobbs opinion. I'm still focused on women's rights and what a final opinion might mean for folks across the country. I will keep fighting for a woman's right to access the care she needs."
05/11/2022 Tweet - "Roe has been the established precedent for nearly 50 years. It's so disappointing to me that my daughters and millions of American women could soon have fewer rights than they were born with. That's why I'll be voting yes to codify Roe."
05/11/2022 Tweet - "I voted to protect reproductive rights, but I'm angry that the Senate once again failed to do so. It's simple: most Americans support the right of a woman to make her own medical decisions. It's been an established right for 50 years. The Senate should recognize that and act."
05/10/2022 Tweet - "Women are equal participants in society. Women deserve the right to choose."
05/09/2022 Tweet - "On this day in 1960, the FDA approved the first birth control pill. But laws around the country are threatening to turn back the clock and deny women the right to make their own choices. I support a woman's right to access the health care she needs."
05/08/2022 Tweet - "Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers and mother figures out there! I'm thinking especially of my incredible wife, Lisa, who raised three strong daughters, and my own mom, whose vibrance shaped my life immeasurably."
04/21/2022 Tweet - "I'm dismayed to watch state after state pass laws that restrict the freedom of LGBT Americans and the reproductive freedom of women. It's not right, and I'm fighting for better federal protections for ALL Virginians."
03/31/2022 Tweet - "On the final day of Women's History Month, I want to give a special shoutout to my incredible wife, Lisa, and my three daughters! I'm blessed to have a family of strong, thoughtful women."
03/15/2022 Tweet - "Congress got it done last week: passing postal reform, reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act, securing $85 million for specific Virginia projects, and more. Next up: filling our SCOTUS vacancy."
03/15/2022 Tweet - "A woman needs to work this far into the year to make what a man made in 2021 -- and the problem is even worse for Black and Latina women. We need equal pay for equal work -- it's critical to closing the racial wealth gap and ending child poverty. #EqualPayDay"
03/11/2022 Tweet - "The Senate just reauthorized the Violence Against Women Act -- strengthening protections and resources for victims of domestic violence. This law saves lives, and yesterday we got it done."
03/08/2022 Tweet - "Happy #InternationalWomensDay -- I'm fighting for policies that actively support women, like reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act and pushing for child care policy that helps families have access to high-quality, affordable care."
03/07/2022 Tweet - "On this day in 2013, Pres. Obama signed a reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act into law, but it expired in 2019. It is past time for the Senate to reauthorize this lifesaving law."
02/22/2022 Tweet - "It's past time for the Senate to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act."
02/14/2022 Tweet - "The Violence Against Women Act is a critical piece of legislation that protects victims of domestic violence and saves lives. It's past time to reauthorize it and #SupportSurvivors."
02/07/2022 Tweet - "I'm no stranger to being around strong women -- at home and in Congress. So it was great to get to keep that going by speaking at the AWE Women in Business Summit last Friday and discuss what Congress is working on right now for small business."
01/31/2022 Tweet - "Access to abortion is a fundamental part of health care. That's why I'm advocating for a permanent end to the Global Gag Rule and codifying Roe into law by passing the Women's Health Protection Act."
