Today, Congresswoman Veronica Escobar (TX-16) released the following statement on the Supreme Court ruling of access to Mifepristone:

“Last night’s Supreme Court ruling allowing the safe and effective abortion pill Mifepristone to remain accessible to millions of Americans is a win for our country. But make no mistake, it is only a matter of time before we face the next attack on women’s reproductive rights.

“Over the last several years, we have seen a court with a historically low rate of trust from the American people determined to regulate and control women’s bodies. And my Republican colleagues have made it clear through their actions that they will not stop until there is a nationwide ban on abortion.

“I remain as committed as ever to continue the fight to ensure every woman has the freedom to make personal decisions about her health with her doctor and without politicians and judges trying to control them.“
