Issues That Matter
Reproductive Freedom

Women deserve to make their own health choices. Lauren supports women’s rights to the full range of reproductive health services, without restrictions. This includes access to safe, legal, and affordable abortions.

Donald Trump’s Project 2025 would criminalize abortions – calling for a nationwide abortion ban, plus dangerous bans on contraception and fertility services like IVF. We must defeat these extremist agendas.

LAUREN’S WORK:

  • With abortion restrictions advancing across the country, Lauren understands the urgency of our fight for reproductive freedom. That’s why Lauren voted for key legislation to codify Roe and protect our access to contraception.
  • Lauren supports legislation to ensure nationwide access to fertility services like IVF is protected. Services like IVF should be affordable and covered by health plans.
  • Lauren believes that providers should not be faced with criminal prosecution and jail time for doing their jobs and helping patients and families.
  • Lauren co-founded the Black Maternal Health Caucus and wrote the Momnibus Act of 2022, a collection of 13 bills to address every driver of maternal mortality, morbidity, and disparities in the United States. 80% of Maternal Deaths are preventable – women and families deserve to live to raise their children.
