                     STRIPPING AWAY WOMEN'S RIGHTS

  (Ms. GARCIA of Texas asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. GARCIA of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise in support of women and 
their fundamental rights to reproductive healthcare.

[[Page H6512]]

  While MAGA Republicans want to rip away women's rights, House 
Democrats remain committed to standing with women. We trust women.
  For a second time, we will vote to pass the Women's Health Protection 
Act to make the protections of Roe v. Wade the law of the land once 
again. House Democrats will also pass the Ensuring Women's Right to 
Reproductive Freedom Act, which will prevent Republicans from suing or 
fining women who travel across State lines to obtain an abortion.
  Trusting women to make their own personal healthcare decisions is 
what we believe as Democrats. Controlling women and stripping away 
their rights is what they are as Republicans.
  Democrats won't give up the fight. We stand with women. We trust 
women.
