Review Bill

“As a state lawmaker, I will advocate for women’s rights to make their own medical decisions and work to codify Roe v. Wade. I think my girls should have the same bodily autonomy as their brother. It is a right that millions of women fought for and earned almost 5 decades ago, and we should not go backwards by taking away a woman’s fundamental right to choose.”
