I spent last night thinking of medical work arounds for this horrific law, until it is rectified in the courts. So, this is what I would tell my daughter or her friends if they were in Texas. [I know this isn't enough, but as a mom, and doctor, I am sharing my thoughts].

I am overwhelmed at the number of dads taking their daughters to vote. It turns out Dads are not without electoral power either.

Campaigning is about reaching out to anyone who will listen, on behalf of ideas and leaders you believe in. Really enjoyed my conversation with @jubileemedia and 25 undecided Michiganders about why I believe @KamalaHarris is the right choice.

🗽📢Attention, New York voters! You have a chance to protect abortion rights in your state AND protect people from government discrimination based on their pregnancy status or pregnancy outcome! VOTE YES ON PROP 1!
In New York, we never thought the right to abortion was at risk. But then Roe v. Wade was overturned. Vote YES on #Prop1 to enshrine our rights to abortion in our state constitution so we’re never caught off guard again. We are not going back. #YesonProp1NY

New York! Get out and vote yes on Prop. 1, and let’s enshrine abortion rights into New York’s constitution. Election Day is this Tuesday, November 5. Make a plan to vote and let’s protect our reproductive freedoms for good. It’s your body. It should always be your choice.

As Donald Trump calls for the murder of Liz Cheney, it is despicable and disqualifying that Mike Lawler continues to support him. Yesterday, @lawler4ny said he needs to be reelected in order for President Trump to have a Republican Congress to do his bidding. Vote him out!
Trump on Liz Cheney: "Let's put her with a rifle standing there with 9 barrels shooting at her. Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face."

Republican and Democratic clerks of elections are doing their jobs here in Pennsylvania – and together with law enforcement, they’re making sure only eligible voters are able to register and vote. Let’s remember, in 2020, Donald Trump attacked our elections over and over. I was
Trump appears to be laying the groundwork to contest Pennsylvania election results, claiming without evidence this morning that the whole commonwealth somehow is cheering at “large scale levels”

Johnson will be campaigning with @lawler4ny TOMORROW. Clearly, Lawler would fall in line with Johnson and Trump and vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act. #NY17
Mike Johnson says one of Trump’s top priorities will be to repeal the Affordable Care Act and rip away health care from tens of millions of Americans: “No Obamacare”

This is what happens when abortion access is "left up to to the states." More women (and babies) die in the states that ban abortion.

No Joe Biden didn't call any voter garbage. He did say a comedian calling Puerto Rico garbage was a garbage move. Don't let their pundits gaslight us.

The collateral damage abortion bans is always life threatening risk to pregnant women. In other countries it took one dead mother for people to realize they needed to protect abortion access. Election Day is November 5. Vote Accordingly.

Josseli Barnica is one of at least two pregnant Texas women who died after doctors delayed emergency care. She’d told her husband that the medical team said it couldn’t act until the fetal heartbeat...

I’m here to tell you that even though some have forgotten … I remember. I remember what it was like when Trump was president. I remember what he did and said, about Puerto Rico… About our people ... I remember after Hurricane Maria devastated our island… Trump blocked
