“As I wait to VOTE NO on this constitutional amendment, I look to @SenatorMuth. Let me be clear-this isn't putting control in the hands of the people at the ballot box (the votes they're also suppressing). It's CHANGING the Constitution to say you don't have any right to abortion.”

“@GovernorTomWolf thank you for vowing to keep abortion access legal and safe in PA. A Woman’s privacy and right to make her own decisions is on the line, but sadly this maybe the beginning, this #extremescotus will continue to chip away. #ProtectRoe”
