“Kansans decided overwhelmingly in August 2022 that personal, private medical decisions should be made by patients and their families in consultation with health care providers and faith leaders – not politicians in Topeka. Ethan is committed to defending Kansans’ constitutional rights to bodily autonomy and self-determination, whether they’re seeking abortion care or gender-affirming care.”

“One of the first votes I took as your senator was in opposition to the constitutional amendment that our state ultimately rejected in August 2022. I remember sitting in the Senate chamber thinking, This is just the beginning. And while we came together to soundly, overwhelmingly reject this extreme government overreach as Kansans, the politicians who put it on the ballot havent gotten the message. They continue to advance laws that traumatize women seeking abortions, that undermine the physician-patient relationship, that insert politics into decisions that are best made by families and their support systems. Will you stand with me to continue the fight for bodily autonomy and self-determination in Kansas?”

“Attended a forum on The State of Reproductive Rights in KS hosted by the @LWVJoCo and @ksmainstream. Women's reproductive rights are in jeopardy because the #ksleg is attempting to insert itself into women's healthcare decisions. I strongly oppose the constitutional amendment.”

“Given the attacks on women's reproductive rights coming out of Topeka, Jenna and I were proud to participate in today's Women's March. We were at the 2017 March in DC and have been to a march every year since. A great annual reminder of how much work remains. #ksleg #TeamEthan”
