Issues: Reproduction

Congressman Bobby Scott (VA-03) issued the following statement after the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 3755 Women's Health Protection Act of 2021:

"Women have the right to make decisions about their health care. That has been understood by courts and lawmakers for decades, at least until last month, when the Supreme Court upheld a blatantly unconstitutional law in Texas. I was proud to vote for the Women's Health Protection Act to finally codify the rights guaranteed in Roe v. Wade. We must protect reproductive rights."
