I was honored to attend last night’s state dinner for Japan - a country I have so loved visiting - and to have the opportunity to speak about reproductive freedom in America. nytimes.com/2024/04/10/us/…

This decision is against the will of Arizonans, and it's another example of why being a #reprofreedomvoter will be so critical this November. We must undo the harm being caused by abortion bans.

In 50 years of attempts to roll back abortion rights, no one did more damage than Trump.

Florida’s Supreme Court breaks 40 years of precedent by ruling to remove abortion protections,
triggering a six-week ban to take effect in 30 days – on May 1st.

Even when this ban goes into effect, you can still get an abortion in Florida.

That's why the Charley, the private and secure abortion chatbot team put together a new resource for Floridians: chatwithcharley.org/florida

An overwhelming majority of Floridians believe everyone deserves the freedom to make personal health decisions without interference from politicians.

Turning out as many voters as possible for November's ballot initiative just got even more important.

Three takeaways from Florida:

1. A six-week abortion ban will be allowed to take effect in 30 days

2. Voters will have the chance to reject this ban in November

3. Abortion seekers in Florida still have options, and Charley, the private and secure abortion chatbot can help
