“We are currently debating #HB321 on the floor. This bill is an unconstitutional ban on a women's right to choose. Republicans want you to think this is about protecting the rights of people with disabilities. It is not. It is an attack on women’s health.”

“I tried to file a motion to re-refer HB 321, an unconstitutional abortion ban, to the judiciary committee. The Speaker ignored my request: silencing my colleagues by not allowing them to promptly vote on my motion and silencing my constituents by ignoring my right to speak.”
