Senator Diane Pappas: Supreme Court not living up to motto

ROSELLE – State Senator Diane Pappas (D-Itasca) released the following statement in response to the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, removing the right to choose from millions of women.

 “It's a sad day when the Supreme Court strips millions of Americans of their right to privacy and reproductive health care based on nothing more than being born with certain anatomy. Today the Supreme Court effectively sanctioned discrimination on the basis of sex.”

“In Illinois, we trust women to make their own health care decisions and will continue to fight for equal rights for all.”
