Kim Schrier on Abortion

 

 


Only pro-choice woman doctor in Congress

Prior to her election, Kim spent her career as a pediatrician serving thousands of families and was compelled to run for office after Trump's election in 2016 when her Representative voted to take away health insurance from her patients and their families. She is committed to ensuring all our children have the chance to succeed in a middle class centered economy that works for everyone.

As the first pediatrician and only pro-choice woman doctor in Congress, Kim brings a vital missing voice as Congress debates reproductive rights, children's health, and affordable health care and prescription drugs.ÿ

Frontline is the DCCC's program to ensure Democratic Members of Congress from the most competitive seats have both the resources and cutting-edge information they need to execute effective reelection campaigns. This cycle, our Majority hinges on winning these tough Frontline races. These Members need your help to get across the finish line in November 2022.

Considers an attack on Planned Parenthood an attack on women

As a doctor and a woman, I trust women to make their own personal decisions about health and family planning. I have always supported a woman's right to choose. Control over our own bodies and reproductive choices is a key measure of women's equality. I will fight to increase funding for Planned Parenthood and consider any attack on Planned Parenthood to be an attack on women. Contraception should be widely available and covered by insurance.
