“On abortion, I believe in keeping Pennsylvania's laws as they are. Women's health decisions are personal, and they shouldn't be dictated by politicians in Harrisburg. It is between a woman and their doctor. We don't need government interference in these private matters. My stance is straightforward – support women in all their health decisions. Whether it's providing resources or ensuring access to health services, the focus should be on supporting women, not politicizing their health choices. It's a matter of privacy and respect. Additionally, we need to support organizations who help women that choose to have their baby, especially those who are economically disadvantaged. I support women, end of story.”
