Murray, Duckworth, Bush, Pressley Introduce Bicameral Bill to Help Women with Disabilities Access Reproductive Health Care

Press Release

"People with disabilities have long faced discrimination and real roadblocks to getting the health care, including abortion care, that they need--and it's become a full-blown crisis in the year after the Dobbs decision overturned the right to abortion, especially for the nearly 3 million disabled women who live in states without access to reproductive health care. As we continue to fight back against Republicans' escalating attacks on reproductive health care across the country, there's so much more we need to do to ensure women and people with disabilities can access high-quality care from providers who understand their unique health care needs. My legislation with Senator Duckworth would make a big difference in helping people with disabilities access the high-quality reproductive care they deserve--and I'll be fighting to pass it this Congress."
