Today, we should be celebrating 50 years of #RoeVWade — a vital step in our journey toward liberty and justice for all.

Instead, the GOP sold out Americans in service of a dark vision: a country where freedom is reserved for a privileged few. 1/4
Abortion is now unavailable in 14 states: nearly 18 million women face barbaric health care restrictions while doctors are threatened with criminal charges for simply doing their jobs. Every day, these laws are forcing Americans through senseless, preventable anguish. 2/4
Yet Republicans are still doubling down on their crusade against freedom. Within days of gaveling in the new Congress, the @HouseGOP passed two senseless anti-abortion bills. And now, they have introduced legislation to impose a nationwide abortion ban. 3/4
.@HouseDemocrats believe in liberty, not oppression. We believe in progress for all, not power for a few.

We will continue fighting to advance reproductive justice and defend the health, economic security, and freedom of the American people. 4/4

Instead of building on our nation’s legacy of progress, defending freedom, and standing for equality, the extreme @HouseGOP has made assaulting reproductive justice the cornerstone of its agenda.

Here are the bills on the floor for a vote today...1/5
#1: The so-called "born alive" bill – it's deliberately misleading and offensive to the women who face pregnancy complications and the doctors and nurses who provide their care.

The bill is not based on science or based on concern for the people seeking medical care. 2/5
#2: Resolution on violent threats to abortion providers and patients.

Let’s be clear: While Democrats reject violence at every turn, Republicans amplify dangerous voices and are silent as abortion providers and patients face increased threats. 3/5
