I am a two-time breast cancer survivor, so I understand firsthand how essential healthcare options are for women all throughout the country. That is why I oppose the Trump-Handel plan to defund Planned Parenthood. 2.4 million individuals receive health care services from Planned Parenthood every year, and I will fight tooth and nail for the essential services that Planned Parenthood provides. I fully support funding programs that help enable women to have the autonomy to make reproductive decisions. This includes greater access to contraception products and family planning services.
Furthermore, I fundamentally believe that everyone should earn equal pay for equal work. I support efforts to bring about equal pay for men and women.
