“In the wake of the 2022 Dobbs decision, state legislatures all over the United States have been passing legislation to limit women’s ability to make their own healthcare decisions and their right to choose. For years, Republicans in Harrisburg have been trying to enact the same restrictions here in Pennsylvania. I pledge my unwavering support for a woman’s right to choose. Pennsylvanians know that politicians aren't qualified to make these healthcare decisions for women, and that no law should take away someone’s freedom to make their own personal medical decisions. I am proud to be endorsed by groups like Planned Parenthood (PP Pennsylvania Advocates) who fight every day for the reproductive freedom that a vast majority of Pennsylvanians support!”
