I am your constituent and it’s the two-year anniversary of the Dobbs decision, and I’m writing to say that I’m disgusted by what’s happened to our country since then. Our maternal mortality rates are getting worse. 171,000 women had to travel out of state last year to get the reproductive healthcare they needed. Women are being turned away from emergency rooms. Doctors are being threatened with prosecution for doing their jobs. 64,000 women across the country have been forced to carry their rapists pregnancies to term. It’s a disaster. I want the Senate to pass S. 701 and the House to pass H.R. 12, the Women’s Health Protection Act now. Politicians shouldn’t be controlling what we do with our bodies. If they can’t understand that then we will vote them out in November.
