Pennsylvania 8th Congressional District Debate

Up to them, their doctors, their faith. They ought to make their own health care decisions in privacy and consultation. And I trust a woman's right to make her own decisions. That's why I voted for the Women's Health Protection act of 2021 and 2022. My opponent, however, does not. He wants to have a national ban on abortion with no exceptions. No exception for rape, no exception for incest. (16:37–16:44)
