I am pro-choice. I believe women should have the right to choose and not have it be dictated by the government.
As a woman, I know how important it is to support each other as well as organizations that promote advancing and increasing access to sexual health and reproductive services. As an elected official, I’ve been consistently responsive and I prioritize serving with accessibility for my constituents.
As a State Representative, I will continue to champion equitable access to reproductive health and comprehensive sex education. We should ensure that all students K-12 have access to reproductive health and comprehensive sex education at an age-appropriate level. Students of all ages, in all schools, should be given the tools and a science backed education to make informed decisions on their reproductive and sexual health. They should also have access to free birth control and protection.
