On Abortion Provider Appreciation Day, Murray, Cantwell, AG Ferguson Outline Path Forward in Fight to Protect Reproductive Health Care

Statement

Date: March 10, 2023
Issues: Abortion

"Last year, we should have celebrated 50 years of Roe. But instead, we have watched newly empowered Republicans pass ban after deadly, dangerous abortion ban. We've seen Republicans go after IVF, birth control, and basic family planning services. And now we're seeing them go after the ability of patients all across our country--including right here in Washington state--to get medication abortion," said Senator Murray. "That's why, on Wednesday, Senator Cantwell, our Democratic colleagues, and I reintroduced the Women's Health Protection Act. This bill is not complicated. It simply restores women's right to make their own health care decisions, and protects doctors right to provide abortion care, no matter where in America that patient or doctor lives."
