“Despite ongoing attacks on reproductive care by anti-choice politicians, abortion is still safe and legal in PA. I'll never stop fighting to keep it that way.”

“Protecting women’s healthcare goes beyond protecting reproductive rights. Our healthcare system must ensure women have the right to make their own healthcare decisions, have access to affordable mental health resources, and are adequately cared for in emergency settings.”

“I'm pleased to see SCOTUS preserve access to mifepristone, a safe + effective method to end a pregnancy + manage miscarriages. But attacks on abortion won't stop here. As a nurse + a senator, I won't stop fighting to protect your freedom to make your own healthcare decisions.”
