May 9, 2019 Tweet - "A woman has enough to deal with when it comes to her health care without also having to worry about male politicians telling her what she ought to do with her body.

May 11, 2022 Tweet - "As fundamental rights are at risk at the Supreme Court, Senate Republicans have blocked passage of the Women's Health Protection Act.

Oct. 13, 2020 Tweet - "During her confirmation hearing, Justice Ginsburg said the right to choose was "essential to women's equality."
