Three years after SCOTUS rolled back abortion rights, young women today have fewer rights than their mothers and grandmothers. @pressley.house.gov talks about Republican attacks on reproductive freedom and Trump’s One Big Ugly Bill exacerbating the devastating consequences of the Dobbs decision.
The legal tactics against @replamonica.bsky.social are nothing more but a smear campaign to silence an honorable, duly elected Black Congresswoman. But it won't work. We will continue standing with Congresswoman McIver & against Trump's tactics to silence Members conducting oversight.

Storytelling is powerful. It guides our abortion justice movement and sets the frame for how deep our policies should go. Three years since Dobbs, we joined @mcclellan.house.gov to hear directly from people impacted by cruel abortion bans and denials of essential medical care.

3 years ago, the SCOTUS ripped away our right to bodily autonomy, and the fallout has been devastating. Now, we face a hostile Administration doubling down on ripping away essential healthcare from millions. This unjust status quo is not an inevitability.
“Three years ago today, the Supreme Court denied us our bodily autonomy and ripped away the fundamental right to abortion care in this country. Since that cruel decision, we have witnessed devastating and deadly consequences for patients across the nation. Abortion bans are denying families basic medical care. The Black maternal health crisis has worsened drastically.

“Republicans’ attacks on our basic reproductive freedom are a risk to every person who calls this country home and have disproportionately impacted our Black, brown, immigrant, disabled, and LGBTQ+ communities.

“Now, we face a hostile Administration doubling down on ripping away essential healthcare. (1/3)
“Trump and Republicans are pushing their Big, Ugly Bill—cruel legislation that would destroy Medicaid as we know it, defund Planned Parenthood health centers, ban abortion coverage in private insurance plans on the ACA marketplace, and put essential care further out of reach for millions.

“This unjust and worsening status quo is not an inevitability. 

“Today, we recommit not only to protecting and defending reproductive healthcare, but to advancing an affirmative vision for a just America where abortion justice is realized and everyone—no matter their zip code, income, or immigration status—can access the care they need with dignity in their own community. (2/3)
“That means stopping Republicans’ reconciliation bill in its tracks, and advancing, comprehensive policies like my Abortion Justice Act, the Women’s Health Protection Act, and the EACH Act to protect and expand abortion access and affirm our fundamental rights.

“As we mark this somber anniversary, I look forward to partnering with Co-Chair DeGette and our colleagues of the Reproductive Freedom Caucus to affirm our commitment to using every tool we have to protect and restore access to abortion care, center impacted families, and continue building the more just America our constituents demand and deserve.” (3/3)
We must keep fighting for families across this country to access the basic medical care they need to survive, to be safe in birth, to be treated with human dignity. And that starts by defeating Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill that puts necessary health care further out of reach for millions of people.
As a college student, I went to Planned Parenthood and was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. Later, as a survivor of campus sexual assault, I returned to Planned Parenthood for counseling and STI testing. So this is deeply personal to me.
As we begin to mark three years since SCOTUS ripped away the basic right to abortion care in America, I stood with @whipkclark.bsky.social, @warren.senate.gov, & @trahan.house.gov in proud solidarity with Planned Parenthood in the fight to stop Republicans’ latest attack on reproductive freedom.
This bill would defund Planned Parenthood health centers, bar private health insurers on the ACA marketplace from offering abortion coverage, and slash Medicaid health care coverage — leaving over 300,000 MA residents unable to access basic health care services. The cruelty is truly the point.
Trump and Republicans’ Big, Ugly Bill wouldn’t just slash Medicaid and food assistance for millions of people—it is also a brazen attack on reproductive healthcare and a backdoor abortion ban, even for safe-haven states like Massachusetts.

We have a housing crisis that is impacting communities nationwide. I joined @lynch.house.gov & @ushousefsc.bsky.social in Brockton to hear directly from experts on what should be done federally to support affordable and public housing in America. We must affirm housing as a human right.
