Quick update on what happened today and tomorrow’s proceedings! I can’t wait to serve the people of Ohio’s 13th Congressional District.

We did it, Ohio! Tonight, we celebrate the passage of Issue One, a citizen led ballot initiative that rejected Republican politicians’ extreme six week abortion ban and enshrined protections for reproductive rights in our state’s Constitution. My full statement:

As you can see, I was thrilled to pick Ohio’s 13th Congressional District office at the Capitol!
I told you when I won, we’re all going to Congress— so this isn’t just my office, it’s ours. My door will always be open and your voice will always be heard.

51 years ago today, the Supreme Court decided Roe v. Wade. Last year, Ohioans protected reproductive freedom in our state’s Constitution––but the fight continues as we push back against a national abortion ban. In Congress, I will always protect Ohioans’ reproductive freedom.

I agree with
@GovMikeDeWine
. The government should stay out of personal medical decisions made by families and their healthcare providers. Let’s keep this energy into 2024 and beyond.
#Freedom
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine announced he has vetoed a bill that would have banned medical practitioners from providing gender-affirming care for transgender minors, saying he believes gender-affirming care is a decision families should make, not the government.

Congratulations to the hundreds of volunteers across Ohio who helped deliver over 700,000 signatures! With support like this, we will vote NO in August and YES in November and secure our reproductive freedom.
That's a LOT of signatures...more than 700k, to make sure they had the 300+k they needed to make ballot. The special August election, however, will likely decide whether abortion stays legal in Ohio via the ballot. The court fights will continue....

Ohioans deserve a government that listens. SJR 2 is undemocratic & limits the power of people in our state. As elected officials, we should be making it easier for our constituents’ voices to be heard at every level of government. We work for the people, not the other way around.

Tori didn’t have to die and her death is a tragic reminder of the abysmal maternal death rates in this county. Maternal mortality continues to kill women across the country at alarming rates and Black women are more likely to die than any other group in this country.

Mifepristone has been proven safe and effective, by the FDA for decades, but an extreme Republican judge is ignoring the advice of the American Medical Association and American College of Obstetricians because politicians want to control women and our decision. No more!

I’m glad to see the court keep mifepristone available for now— but our rights shouldn’t be left up in the air by the court. While the GOP tries to pass a total abortion ban with no exceptions, I’ll keep working to ensure access to reproductive freedom and abortion nationwide.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court blocks lower court rulings on mifepristone. The medication abortion drug remains available — for now. But our rights remain up for debate in the courts and the fight to protect reproductive freedom is far from over.

While Ohioans may have enshrined abortion and reproductive freedom into our state’s constitution, it’s clear we need to protect women’s freedom to make their own healthcare decisions across the nation.
No one should be forced to leave their state for medical care.
Kate Cox, a 31-year-old mother of two, had sought an abortion in Texas after learning that her fetus had a fatal genetic condition and that carrying the pregnancy to term could jeopardize her future fertility.
She's now left the state for abortion care.

Ohioans unequivocally deserve the freedom to vote.
This shameful, anti-democratic legislation creates barriers to the ballot box, taking power away from the people of Ohio. The right to vote is our most fundamental freedom and it must be protected.
In Ohio, the Republican supermajority-controlled state House passed a bill that would undercut the fundamental right to vote. At a moment when so many fundamental freedoms are under attack, Ohioans should have every opportunity to make their voices heard at the ballot box.

Our nation is once again devastated by another act of hatred and gun violence. I am praying for the victims and their families. The Club Q shooting is yet another result of divisive and hateful rhetoric that led to gun violence. We must say ENOUGH.
