Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016
Issues: Women Abortion Health Insurance Health and Health Care

In the Senate, Jamie has been a bold leader defending women's health choices and reproductive autonomy, most recently clashing with Senators trying to deny Medicaid funding for medically necessary abortions--a move that was defeated. He is 100% pro-choice and has been an indispensable ally of Maryland NARAL, Planned Parenthood, and the ACLU, which gave him its Henry Edgerton Civil Liberties Award for his unwavering defense of civil rights and civil liberties. In Congress, he will never back down from a fight to protect women's right to make their own healthcare decisions in consultation with their doctors.
