“On the anniversary of Georgia’s abortion ban being signed into law, we must be clear:

"Donald Trump is responsible for the harm, chaos, and confusion women have suffered since the law went into effect. The Trump abortion ban in Georgia rips away women’s freedoms before many even know they’re pregnant and will only worsen the maternal mortality crisis.

“The fear and anguish Georgia women have endured because of Donald Trump is unconscionable, but this is the reality Trump set out to create when he proudly appointed three Supreme Court justices with the intent to overturn Roe v. Wade. Even worse, Trump now says states like Georgia have the right to monitor pregnancies and punish women.

“It is simple: the government should not come between a woman and her doctor, and President Biden and I will never stop fighting to protect reproductive freedom and restore the protections of Roe. This November, we will stop these Trump abortion bans and stand up for women’s freedoms in Georgia and across the country.”
