"Today's Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v Wade strips women of their fundamental human right. It's an attack on a woman's right to control their own life and healthcare. This will impact Latinas, minorities, and vulnerable communities the most. I won't sit quietly — I promise to continue the fight for reproductive rights and will protect women at every turn."
