@dom_lucre AIPAC DOES NOT PAY POLITICIANS. They fund their election campaigns. And when you actually look at the details of who they fund and why they fund them- you can understand what’s going on a lot more clearly. Hence why we have to ban TikTok so they can’t…
1- When a woman’s health is in danger, the doctor should not have to consult a lawyer before providing needed abortion healthcare. 2- Tune in to AZLeg.gov tomorrow at 10 am. Democrats fight for your right to decide your life outcomes. We will move to repeal the ban
Attacks on reproductive freedoms have no place in Arizona. I will always stand firm in defending Arizona women's right to make decisions about their bodies, health & future.
