Rep. Pressley on Roe: ‘Matter of Life and Death for Our LGBTQ+ Siblings, the Disabled’

EXCERPT:

PRESSLEY: “Well, I think she gave voice to the anger, the sense of betrayal that everyone who values freedom, the constitutional right to health care, and abortion care is health care, is feeling at this moment. And that vulnerability will be disproportionately bore by our most marginalized. We know there’s a black maternal morbidity crisis, this is an issue that Vice President Harris has led on, black women are three to four times more likely to die in childbirth. We know that for those that do not have means to travel to safe haven states, that they will be left with no options. And so, this is a matter of life and death for our LGBTQ siblings, for the disabled, for low-income women, for women of color, for black women.”
