The new congresswoman spoke out last week to celebrate the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling overturning Roe v. Wade, saying on social media that it is “clear that the Constitution never created a right to abortion, and this ruling rightly returns the authority to regulate abortion back to the people and their elected representatives in the states. All life is precious, and today, life won.”
