ICYMI: the disability community will finally have a voice on @Amtrak's board! Congrats to David Capozzi for his nomination, I look forward to having him as a strong leader advocating for the 61 million Americans with disabilities. https://t.co/ZF7SohVtr4 — PolitiTweet.org

On average, Americans pay two to four times what people in other developed countries pay for prescription drugs. That's just wrong—no one should be forced to ration life-saving medicine that they need to pay the bills. My new op-ed in @thesouthern ⬇ https://t.co/xVvuYdE9Me — PolitiTweet.org

Flowers and cards are wonderful—but this Mother’s Day, every mom deserves a Senator that is prepared to codify their right to choose into law. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
My colleagues on the other side of the aisle need to know why protecting Roe is so important to you, your children and your community. Please QT this thread with your own stories. Speak up and say: codify Roe now. I’m with you. (14/14) — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Moms, I know we’re tired. But this Mother’s Day, I urge you to turn your frustration into action, make your voices heard and tell Congress that if they really want to honor moms today, they should start not by buying flowers or cards—but by protecting our basic human rights. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
But no, this is not about saving lives. It’s about controlling women. It’s about taking away a freedom that more than half of our population has had access to for half a century. And I refuse to let my daughters grow up in a world with fewer rights than I had. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
They would be putting all of their efforts to addressing the growing maternal mortality crisis that has taken an alarming number of Black mothers’ lives. They would be pushing for desperately needed policies that support parents like affordable childcare and paid parental leave. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Let’s also make something clear: what’s happening is not about protecting life. If the anti-choice movement truly wanted to protect life, they’d advocate for policies like affordable, accessible postpartum healthcare and the expansion of Medicaid—things that really do save lives. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
So, you see, attempts to limit women’s reproductive choice, which can include limiting medical advancements like IVF, truly feel like a personal attack for me. Because I’ve lived what it means when choice and access to necessary, basic healthcare is not an option given to you. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Every day, I am grateful beyond words for the miracle of IVF. Because of IVF, I get to experience all the joys of motherhood. Because of IVF, my husband and I are “mommy and daddy.” Because of IVF, we are a family. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Boy, did her badgering pay off! After many, many rounds of IVF—and some heartbreaking moments along the way, including a miscarriage—I was able to bring both my girls into this world. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Thankfully, years later, a friend encouraged me—really badgered me until I couldn’t refuse—to talk to her fertility doctor. I didn’t want to go through the same disappointment of being told it wasn’t going to happen for me, but I finally made an appointment. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
These folks weren’t honest about all of the options available to me due to religious objections and, because of it, my journey to bring my two beautiful girls into the world almost didn’t happen. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
Unfortunately, a doctor at a private hospital basically confirmed my fear: I was past my prime baby-making years. They told me to just "go home and enjoy my husband.” — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
For a long time, I didn’t know if being a mom was in the cards for me. What I knew was that I wanted to serve my country, so I joined the Army. And after my helicopter was shot down, I wasn’t sure if I could revisit the idea of motherhood. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
So right now—before every Senator votes to either protect or take away our right to choose next week—it’s so important that we speak out, share our stories and what this truly means for us and our families. Here is my story. A story that would not be possible without Roe. — PolitiTweet.org
Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
This Mother’s Day, I know what many of us moms are feeling: we're exhausted, struggling to hold it all together for our families and now our right to choose hangs in the balance. Mom to mom, I see you. How dare anyone think that they know what's best for us? They don't. (1/14) — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
If the end of abortion rights doesn’t get you angry, just wait until you realize how many other rights are at stake if Roe v. Wade is overturned. Interracial marriage, gay marriage and contraception to name a few. We can’t go back. https://t.co/xNSXfvRmvH — PolitiTweet.org

The freedom to decide if and when to have a child is your constitutional right—not a conditional privilege. I will never stop working to protect Roe v. Wade. — PolitiTweet.org

Forcing births on millions of women when our country faces a growing maternal mortality crisis and we lack affordable child care and universal paid leave is just wrong to say the least. https://t.co/HrVbwtccto — PolitiTweet.org

Tammy Duckworth @SenDuckworth
It's true the word "abortion" isn't in the Constitution, but you know what? Neither is IVF. Our founders could never even dream of IVF being a possible option for women like me to have children. But it is. And overturning Roe could take that option away. That's what's at stake. https://t.co/bDLqjdLDk5 — PolitiTweet.org
