Reproductive Freedom

Politicians have no business in our personal business.

In fact, the Arizona Constitution explicitly guarantees our right to privacy, and I will protect that right for every Arizonan. That applies to having the right to make our own decisions about our bodies, including the right to abortion. With the Repeal of Roe, Arizona is left with laws that could prevent a doctor from even assisting your wife or daughter experiencing a miscarriage until they were close to death.

My own son and daughter-in-law struggled for years to have a child, so we were overjoyed when they became pregnant, and then heartbroken when they learned the fetus couldn’t live past birth. Thank goodness they were able to have a safe procedure to end the pregnancy, with no state legislator looking over their shoulders to blame, judge, fine, or even jail them or their doctor for this most personal decision. People should have the fundamental freedom to make their own decisions including in complicated, life-threatening situations.

As your legislator, I will protect everyone’s right to privacy and a woman’s right to choose.
