Reproductive Freedom Caucus

Four years. Every day since #Dobbs has only reminded us of the urgency and the stakes of our fight. Today, we honor those harmed and even lost because politicians stood between them and their health care. And we vow to keep fighting for a more just tomorrow. Reproductive Freedom Now.

For the past 50 years, the Hyde Amendment has banned the use of federal funds for abortion care. Now is the time to end Hyde and let decisions be made by patients and providers, not politicians. #EndHydeNOW @reprocaucus.bsky.social

Access to safe & legal abortion care is a healthcare necessity—nobody should fear being criminalized or losing their life for seeking the care they need. Today and every day, I stand united with @reprocaucus.bsky.social to uphold and advance these fundamental freedoms.

The Hyde Amendment has denied abortion coverage to millions of low-income people for 50 years. It’s not just outdated—it’s unjust. The #EACHAct will put an end to this systemic barrier to care. Abortion is health care. Full stop.

50 years ago today, the Hyde Amendment was included in our federal spending bill for the first time. Every day since, for half a century, abortion care has been baselessly set apart from all other health care. #EndHydeNOW Read our full statement from RFC Co-Chairs 👇.

No one should ever be denied the care they need. This #InternationalSafeAbortionDay, RFC reaffirm our commitment to protect reproductive rights everywhere.

Health care decisions should be made between patients and providers, NOT judges and politicians. #Mifepristone has been FDA-approved for 26 years. RFC will keep fighting for access to this safe, effective health care.

Birth control is essential healthcare. It’s medicine, it’s public health, it’s economic freedom. On #WorldContraceptionDay and every day, RFC and our Members will always fight to make sure every patient can access it.

When you defund and dismantle Title X, public health pays the price. Recent policy attacks & funding freezes aren’t just political theater—they translate directly to fewer people accessing vital contraception & critical STI testing. Healthcare is a human right. Stop playing politics with our bodies.

I was honored to receive the Lifetime Reproductive Freedom Champion Award from @reproductivefreedomforall.org. Anti-choice extremists would love it if we stopped fighting—if we just let them ban abortion and strip away health care from millions. But we will never give them that satisfaction.

EPA: Hey, polluter besties! Open season on our air and water! Also EPA: OMG guys do you think there's abortion in the water?? We must cleanse it! Let's cut the BS. This is just another blatant attempt to excuse chipping away at abortion access until it is banned entirely.

I will always stand with Planned Parenthood and fight to protect the right of every person, in every zip code, to make their own decisions about their health, their body, and their future.

Planned Parenthood provides essential care to our communities, from cancer screenings and STI testing to birth control and abortion care. We will not back down in the fight against the Trump Administration’s efforts to eliminate access to critical reproductive health care.

I was thrilled to celebrate the grand opening of Planned Parenthood's new flagship health center in Pasadena!

Abortion care is health care, and there is a clear explanation for the doubling of ectopic pregnancy deaths in our country. Abortion bans are not just a partisan policy dispute: they are a death sentence. Read our full statement from RFC Co-Chairs @degette.house.gov and @pressley.house.gov👇.

Ectopic pregnancies are life threatening and the standard of care is abortion care. This rise in ectopic pregnancy related deaths is devastating. As Co-Chair of @reprocaucus.bsky.social, I'll keep fighting for your health and dignity. No one should be denied the essential medical care they need.

I toured the Atlanta Birth Center, fighting maternal & infant mortality in the #FightingFifth. Their mama- and baby-centered care is vital. As they pause services in October to find a more affordable location, we must invest in operations like this and protect vital community resources.

Fertility care is healthcare. Period. No one should be shamed for talking about it or denied the chance to build a family because they can’t afford the care they need. Breaking the stigma matters. RFC Members are fighting for access for everyone.

Massachusetts is showing what it looks like to trust patients and doctors—not politicians. Abortion care should be guided by patients and their medical providers. Proud to see Gov. Healey stand up for reproductive freedom.

Thank you @massgovernor.bsky.social for protecting and expanding abortion care in the Commonwealth. And thank you to our patients, advocates, & storytellers who made this bill possible. Everyone should be able to get the care they need right here at home.

Every American should have access to safe and effective reproductive care, regardless of their income status or zip code. On #WorldIVFDay, I am proud to serve as an original cosponsor of the Right to IVF Act of 2026...

...to protect Americans’ right to IVF and other fertility treatments and expand insurance coverage so more families can get the care they need. As a member of the @reprocaucus.bsky.social, I'm honored to be fighting to protect and expand access to reproductive care for all.

On World IVF Day, I’m proud to cosponsor the Right to IVF Act. We celebrate the families that have been made possible by IVF and recommit to protecting access to fertility care for every family that needs it.

Millions of Americans are battling fertility challenges. Anti-abortion politicians are making it worse. I introduced the Right to IVF Act so people have every chance to start or grown their family.

This legislation is supported by 150+ members of the House and Senate as well as a broad coalition of IVF patient, provider and medical organizations. Starting a family should never depend on your zip code. (3/3)

I’m proud to work with @duckworth.senate.gov to introduce the Right to IVF Act to guarantee the right to family-creating fertility care in every state and puts it within reach for the millions of families who need it. (2/3)

Like so many people in our country facing fertility challenges, my husband and I turned to IVF as our last hope to have kids. After years of appointments, injections, and setbacks, and thanks to our remarkable physicians, we have two beautiful daughters. (1/3)

🚨BREAKING: 150+ House & Senate Dems introduce Right to IVF Act. Every person deserves the freedom to build their family on their terms. For millions of Americans, IVF is the path to parenthood, and RFC and our Members are pushing to protect your access to the fertility care you need.

These are the same products used by millions of Americans every day to be able to choose when, where, and how they start families. We won’t stop fighting these attacks on our reproductive freedoms and basic rights. (2/2)

This Administration’s attacks on reproductive freedom are worse than we knew. Senior officials tried to destroy IUDs and implants stored abroad by lying and saying they cause abortions. (1/2)

Last week, our Members mobilized in commemoration of the fourth anniversary of the deadly #Dobbs decision. Our fight for reproductive freedom continues, and we are only gaining steam. Learn more about our Caucus’ week of action here 👇 reproductivefreedom.house.gov/media/press-...

Four years ago today, women across the country woke up with fewer freedoms than we had the day before – and now 20 states have banned all or some abortion care.

Today marks 4 years since the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade. Abortion bans enacted across the country since then are anti-freedom and anti-family. They’re barbaric. I’ll keep fighting until medical decisions are made by you and your doctor, not lawmakers or judges.

Four years ago, the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization took away a fundamental freedom that millions of Americans had relied on for nearly 50 years. As a mother of four daughters, I believe women—not politicians—should make their own healthcare decisions.

Four years after Dobbs, Georgia families are still living with the consequences of extreme abortion bans. Today, I stood with Shanette Williams to honor Amber Nicole Thurman and demand better. In #TheFightingFifth and across the country, we're fighting to restore reproductive freedom.

Four years ago today, Donald Trump got exactly what he wanted: Roe v. Wade was overturned. Since then, abortion bans have put women's health and reproductive freedom at risk. We can't give up this fight. https://www.ms.now/opinion/trump-freedom-250-great-american-fair-dobbs-abortion-rights

4 years ago, the Supreme Court's disastrous Dobbs decision undermined reproductive freedom and women’s rights. Every American has a right to make personal medical decisions without interference from the government—and we will not stop in the fight to restore the protections of Roe v. Wade.

🔹Nearly 32,000 people traveled to Illinois for abortion care last year 🔹1 in 4 patients crossing state lines for abortion care came to Illinois 🔹Post-Dobbs, Illinois has become a critical refuge for reproductive health care. 🔹Not 1 person who contacted CAF for care in Illinois was turned away

Four years ago today, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, stripping away a constitutional right that generations of women had relied upon. Since then, the devastating consequences of the Dobbs decision have only worsened, and Republican attacks on reproductive freedom continue relentlessly.

Today is the fourth anniversary of the horrific Supreme Court decision that ended Roe v. Wade's reproductive health protections. People should have access to reproductive health care no matter what state they live in.

I was proud to join my colleagues in signing on to an amicus brief in defense of mifepristone access. We've seen the life-threatening consequences of the Dobbs decision for families across our country. I'm standing on the side of protecting reproductive freedoms.

As we approach the fourth anniversary of the Dobbs decision, one thing is clear — the fight isn't over. Every person deserves access to the reproductive healthcare they need without barriers and without shame.

Four years ago, the Dobbs decision stripped reproductive freedom and put women’s lives at risk. I’m fighting to pass the Women’s Health Protection Act so all Americans can make their own choices about their bodies and futures, no matter where they live.

Four years ago, the Supreme Court tore down Roe v. Wade with its disastrous Dobbs decision. Now, women face relentless attacks on their ability to make their own decisions about their body. We must not stop fighting until the Constitutional right to choose is restored. We are not going back.

Four years since Dobbs, we're reminded of the need to reform our Courts. Today, women have fewer reproductive rights than a decade ago. Black women are still at greater risk of dying in pregnancy and childbirth. We cannot ignore that this rollback is costing lives.

(1/2): Four years after the Dobbs decision, millions of Americans face barriers to reproductive health care based on where they live. For federal workers, a transfer or reassignment can put that care out of reach.

Since the catastrophic Dobbs decision, Republicans have restricted access to essential health care across the country. On the anniversary of that decision, Democrats are fighting back, including in Virginia, to protect women’s reproductive freedom.
