Speaking on the Senate floor to say that I am appalled by the extreme, cruel, shameful abortion ban passed in Alabama. This is nothing short of an attack on women & part of a larger effort to take away women’s constitutional right to safe, legal abortion. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
I also want to outline why I oppose Wendy Vitter’s lifetime nomination to the federal bench: Vitter is partisan, has bolstered misinformation about women’s #ReproRights, and is undoubtedly #UnfitToJudge. #CourtsMatter
Vitter has voiced more support for outright lies about women’s health than for Brown v. Board of Ed—the historic decision that struck down state-sponsored segregation. She can't be trusted to decide the historic cases of tomorrow. Vitter's nom should be rejected. #CourtsMatter
Senate Republicans may try to push our courts to the right—but Democrats will keep pushing back. We'll hold a spotlight up to these nominees to make clear how extreme they are and we’ll keep fighting for women, men, and families across the country. #UnfitToJudge #CourtsMatter.
