The work to ban birth control is real. First, Republican state lawmakers had to make abortion illegal. Now, they're redefining birth control to make it sound like abortion. We can't let this happen. Congress must consider and pass my #RightToContraception Act. jessica.substack.com/p/south…

I was honored to speak at a roundtable in Gainesville about what’s at stake and why this bill matters. Proud to join @DeshundraTweets , @PPAVirginia, @jlock, Dr. Kula, and Natali Velasquez for this critical conversation. #RightToContraception

65 years ago, the FDA approved the first birth control pill, setting in motion a revolution in the lives of women and families. Now, access to birth control—which most Americans support—is under attack. That's why I'm fighting in Congress to pass the #RightToContraception Act.

Reproductive freedom is under attack—including access to birth control. I’m proud to stand with @ReproCaucus and my @HouseDemocrats colleagues in reintroducing @RepFletcher’s #RightToContraception Act. Your health decisions should be yours alone—not the government’s.
Replying to @RepFletcher
Today, @SenMarkey and I introduced the #RightToContraception Act to respond to the very real threats to reproductive health care and bodily autonomy that we face today.

On World Contraception Day, I'm reminded of how happy I was when my bill in the WI legislature requiring hospitals to provide emergency contraception was signed into law. As a member of the @ProChoiceCaucus, I strongly support the #RightToContraception Act. Let’s get it passed!

Birth control is basic health care that should be accessible to everyone. As a member of the @ProChoiceCaucus and @DemWomenCaucus, I'm proud to cosponsor the #RightToContraception Act. We must establish the federal right to access ALL forms of FDA-approved birth control.

That was not an answer to the question. “Do YOU support any restrictions on a person’s #righttocontraception” is the ask. It’s a YES OR NO answer. No looking into it required.
Q: Do you support any restrictions on a person’s right to contraception? Trump: We’re looking at that

In his concurring opinion on Dobbs, Justice Thomas invited a challenge to the right to access birth control. That’s why I introduced my #RightToContraception Act to stand up to right-wing attacks and protect access to all FDA-approved birth control. bit.ly/3YoU9ci

Extremist Republicans rescinded abortion rights, attacked fertility treatments, and are now trying to restrict access to birth control. I’m pushing back on these attacks with my #RightToContraception Act, which safeguards access to birth control. wapo.st/4cSR8W2

Some lawmakers say they support the right to birth control. But when they actually have a chance to protect it, they won’t. #RightToContraception Protect our reproductive freedoms! Take action: actionnetwork.org/letters/pr…

38 Senate Republicans just voted against the Right to Contraception Act. How did the party of "freedom" and "limited government" become the party of forced pregnancy and controlling Americans' bodies?

Right-wing extremist politicians & judges are waging war on women’s reproductive health care, including birth control. My #RightToContraception Act would stand up to these extremist attacks and codify the right to birth control into federal law. bit.ly/45CgHYW

On the heels of the 59th anniversary of Griswold v. Connecticut, which confirmed the right of married people to use contraception, the Senate blocked the #RightToContraception Act, leaving birth control access at risk for more attacks. via @MotherJones motherjones.com/politics/202…
