DOBBS V. JACKSON WOMEN'S HEALTH ORGANIZATION

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 105 (Tuesday, June 23, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 105 (Tuesday, June 23, 2026)] [Senate] [Page S3030] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] DOBBS V. JACKSON WOMEN'S HEALTH ORGANIZATION Mr. SCHUMER. Finally, Mr. President, on our spotlight forum on the Dobbs decision, later today, we will join Senator Murray and other Senate Democrats for a spotlight forum on Republicans' extreme war on women's reproductive freedom ahead of the fourth anniversary of the Dobbs decision. Donald Trump may want to brush his extreme effort to curtail women's reproductive rights under the rug, but we won't let him. On the campaign trail in 2024, Donald Trump said that women ``won't be thinking about abortion'' if he got elected, but the truth is that they have to think about it more than ever before because of this awful decision. Ever since the Dobbs decision 4 years ago, Republicans have been working around the clock to restrict access to abortion care. So today, we are going to hear from people who have been forced to live with the consequences of Republicans' radical assault on women's reproductive freedom, and we will discuss how we are fighting back. We are going to remind Donald Trump that women haven't stopped thinking about his efforts to take away their rights; they are mad as hell. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Sheehy). The majority whip. ____________________
