Though #RoeVWade was overturned almost 4 years ago, my office remains dedicated to protecting reproductive freedom in Illinois. In a climate of uncertainty, this fight is not just about abortion but also health care and bodily autonomy at large.

The onslaught of threats & unlawful orders is designed to confuse & distract. We must stand our ground to defend what is right. Read more: tinyurl.com/2s39y84d
