Later that day, she addressed concerns regarding H.R. 21 legislation. According to her post: "The goal of H.R. 21 is clear: to further strip women of their fundamental rights by threatening doctors and healthcare providers with jail time." She criticized Republican efforts to penalize healthcare professionals while contrasting it with leniency towards those accused of more severe crimes. The detailed tweet can be found here.
