Solving big problems requires big solutions. As a representative from Southern Arizona, I will keep fighting for policies that help Arizona families thrive, support a humane immigration system that works for everyone, and prioritize strong environmental protections to combat the climate crisis and safeguard our planet for future generations to come.

Today, the far-right Supreme Court majority voted to strike down Roe v. Wade and overturn nearly 50 years of precedent that guarantees safe and legal abortions, despite Americans’ broad support for abortion rights. What comes next is a wave of oppressive anti-abortion laws in more than 20 states — home to roughly half the country’s population — that will target women and infringe on their constitutional right to critical reproductive health care.
Let’s be clear: Patients should make their own decisions about their own bodies with their doctors without interference from Republican politicians. Period. I strongly believe in protecting and promoting access to health care and privacy — and that includes safe and legal abortion care.
Many Republicans will celebrate this day as a victory, but the truth is that for decades, they’ve worked to revoke essential freedoms for patients to make choices about their own bodies and futures under the guise of a “pro-life” agenda. Republicans aren’t “pro-life”. We’ve seen how they refuse to address gun violence, highmaternal mortality rates, deny basic health care and contraceptives, deny access to paid family leave and universal childcare, cut programs that feed hungry kids and provide low-income families with opportunities to better themselves.
This issue is about control. It is about mostly men, forcing women to carry a child against their will. It is about trapping women in our society in cycles of poverty, so that they cannot easily rise to challenge these men who fear their success. It takes away the most important and lifechanging decision a woman will ever make. It is a fundamental and disgusting restructuring of the progress we have made as a county to afford women equity.
Make no mistake, this decision will fall on the poorest and most vulnerable women in our country: women of color, young women, and low-income women. Women without means to travel or receive a safe abortion may face life threatening consequences and serious health risks. It also means the U.S. will join one of a handful of countries moving to criminalize abortion access.
Democrats in the House of Representatives will not stand by as our country reverses decades of progress for women’s equality. We have already taken several steps to proactively ensure that women are able to make the health care decisions that work best for them. I cosponsored and voted for the Women’s Health Protection Act, which will legislatively protect abortion access. The Senate, including Senators Sinema and Kelly, must now do whatever it takes to pass these protections and get them to the President’s desk. I will never stop fighting to protect and grow the rights of women in this country. I will stand up for what the majority of Americans support, which is to leave health care decisions to a patient and their doctor – not politicians.
Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, sends abortion back to the states

Roe has fallen, and the fight over abortion in America will now rage on into a new and possibly even more polarizing and divisive chapter.It is about time!!! Maybe now the curse will be lifted!
The name of this country is United STATES. And if you have ever been taught American History, you would know that the Constitution was directed to STATES rights. If half or even 25% of states don't believe in abortion, you have NO right to interfere.
All these "pro-life" people better get a second job because they're gonna have some adopting to do.
Wednesday, May 18, 2022 My body, my choice’ is simply wrong: Our bodies belong to Yahweh AKA God. OUR FATHER. HOLY SPIRIT. WE ARE NEAR THE END YAHSHUA WILL RETURN SOON . ??????????????????? ONE THIRD OF THE EARTHS POPULATION WILL MAKE IT INTO THE 1000 YEARS RULE WITH YAHSHUA. Gal 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is: love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, Gal 5:23 meekness, self-control; against such things there is no law. THIS EXCLUDES THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT. AND THE MAJORITY OF THE UNITED STATES. Consistently, the pro-abortion movement relied on “My body, my choice” as a rallying cry, but the female-centric chants become less politically correct as the Left embraces gender ideology and claims men can get pregnant. No one’s body is truly theirs alone. All bodies belong first to God. St. Paul writes in Corinthians, “Or know you not, that your members are the temple of the Holy Ghost, who is in you, whom you have from God; and you are not your own? For you are bought with a great price. Glorify and bear God in your body.” being bought with the price of the blood of Christ, are not your own, you are his property. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 1 Corinthians 6:19 Your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost - What an astonishing saying is this! As truly as the living God dwelt in the Mosaic tabernacle, and in the temple of Solomon, so truly does the Holy Ghost dwell in the souls of genuine Christians; and as the temple and all its utensils were holy, separated from all common and profane uses, and dedicated alone to the service of God, so the bodies of genuine Christians are holy, and all their members should be employed in the service of God alone. And ye are not your own? - Ye have no right over yourselves, to dispose either of your body, or any of its members, as you may think proper or lawful; you are bound to God, and to him you are accountable. From there it follows that our bodies are only to be used to serve God. No one’s body, when rightly committed spiritually to serving God can on Earth be considered only theirs. A single person that is seeking a spouse should want to get married to fulfill God’s vocation for them, by being a loving wife and bringing forth children or by being a loving husband and providing for the family. An inability to have children does not negate this truth – we know from Genesis that in marriage the “man shall leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they shall be two in one flesh” and woman is “bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh.” A sacramental marriage that is open to life fulfills God’s design. In marriage, it would be selfish and sinful for the husband to say his body is his choice or for the wife to say her body is her choice. Husbands are meant to offer up their body for their wife by providing financially for their needs and in other physical ways, such as labor around the house. Wives offer up their bodies through childbearing and submission to their husbands. Men who work long hours, even sometimes taking on several jobs so their wives can stay at home, understand this truth. Women who get up at all hours of the night to take care of children understand this truth. JOSEPH ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REVELATION 17:17 Jeroboam spirit has taken over the United States and the Earth. He was a Hebrew King who TURNED FROM YAHWEH (God), to Satan. Eph 5:7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them. (ABORTIONS MURDER) Eph 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. Ephesians 5:7 Therefore do not be partakers with them. Therefore do not be partners with them. Don’t participate in the things these people do. Therefore do not be partakers with them.
Abortion is killing a baby. Let’s be clear. I celebrate life as a believer in the giver and sustainer of it.
