“I was elected in Ohio's 13th congressional district to serve the people of my district and to address the issues that concern them most. And one of those issues is when they can grow or start a family. Our constituents should not have to live in fear that this right can be taken away from them at any moment because of government interference or politicians who think it is their role to make these important decisions for American families.
