The Senate Women’s Legislative Caucus, co-chaired by Senate Vice President Michelle Kidani and Senator Rosalyn H. Baker, issued the following statement this evening regarding the U.S. Supreme Court’s (SCOTUS) draft opinion on Roe v. Wade:   

“The Senate Women’s Legislative Caucus is appalled and deeply angered at the recent draft SCOTUS opinion regarding the historic Roe v. Wade decision that is currently circulating.   

A woman’s right to choose is a fundamental right that must be protected at all costs. As a caucus, we will continue to fight at every level of government to ensure that everyone has complete autonomy over their own body.   

This assault on our right to choose will not be tolerated.”
