Joe Garcia on Abortion

 

 


A woman should have the final say over her medical affairs

Joe is a strong and unwavering advocate of equality and fairness for women. He believes that a woman should have the final say over her medical affairs.

Planned Parenthood and similar organizations offer services which are indispensable for women, including cancer screenings, disease testing and treatment, and contraception services. We must stop the attacks on those dedicated to providing affordable access to healthcare for women. Joe strongly supports the President's Affordable Care Act, which contains many provisions that benefit women, such as the assured coverage of maternity services and access to free contraception, which are not currently required to be covered by private health insurers. Free and affordable access to contraceptive services reduces the number of unintended pregnancies.
