                     ABORTION CARE IS UNDER ATTACK

  (Mr. FROST asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. FROST. Mr. Speaker, I rise today because the American people know 
that their right to abortion care is under attack.
  As I speak right now, across the street, the Supreme Court of the 
United States is getting ready to rule on whether or not to keep a ban 
on restrictions on an abortion pill that has been around for decades 
and has safely helped millions when they needed it the most.
  In my home State of Florida, our wanna-be-President of a Governor 
signed a 6-week abortion ban into law that effectively means that 
people who have been raped, who are the victims of incest, and who are 
experiencing life-threatening pregnancies are going to be denied the 
care that they need and will be forced to give birth.
  It is barbaric and disgusting. That isn't liberty. That isn't 
freedom. Being able to make a decision about your future and your body, 
that is freedom. Having control over your own reproductive care, that 
is freedom. Having a choice, that is freedom. That is what we need to 
fight for: freedom and liberty for all of our people, not ripping away 
one of their most sacred human rights.
