It's time Republicans on the Hill and in state houses across America stopped playing politics with women’s lives and freedom. Restore Roe. And let doctors do their job.

In America today, women have fewer rights than their mothers and their grandmothers had because of my predecessor’s administration.

Two years ago when the Dobbs decision came down, Republican elected officials bet that all of us would remain silent. That the women of America would remain silent. That Jill, Kamala, Doug, and I wouldn't act. Well, they were wrong then. And they're still wrong today.

I am deeply disturbed by the reports of an attempted drowning of a 3-year old Palestinian-American at a neighborhood pool. No child should ever be subjected to a violent attack, and my heart goes out to the family.
A woman in Texas was charged with attempted capital murder after she tried to drown a 3-year-old girl in an apartment complex pool after making racist comments, officials said. The child’s mother said her family was Palestinian and Muslim. nyti.ms/4bbvxXv

I'll keep doing everything I can to protect access to reproductive health care in the wake of the Dobbs decision, but let me be clear: The only way to protect a woman’s health and rights is for Congress to pass a law that restores the protections of Roe v. Wade once and for all.

I’m appalled by the scenes outside of Adas Torah synagogue in Los Angeles. Intimidating Jewish congregants is dangerous, unconscionable, antisemitic, and un-American. Americans have a right to peaceful protest. But blocking access to a house of worship – and engaging in violence – is never acceptable.

On that dark June day two years ago, the Supreme Court ripped away the Constitutional right to choose, and practically dared American women to be heard. They didn't have a clue what they were in for.

Health care ought to be a right, not a privilege. That starts with making care affordable for everyone.

Our Bipartisan Safer Communities Act – the most significant gun safety law in 30 years – provides $750 million to states to implement crisis interventions like red flag laws that temporarily remove firearms from those who are in danger to themselves or others. That matters.

For generations, LGBTQI+ Americans have lit the way with their joy and pride. Our nation moves forward when we move together.

We can secure our border and provide legal pathways to citizenship. We're America – we don't have to make a choice between the two.

I gave you my word that I was committed to righting our nation's failed approach to marijuana. That's why at my request, HHS and DOJ have begun the process to recommend rescheduling marijuana from a Schedule I to a Schedule III drug – removing barriers to critical research.

No one who has been abused should have to worry about their abuser getting a gun. As a result of today’s Supreme Court ruling, survivors of domestic violence and their families will still be able to count on critical protections, just as they have for the past three decades.

Today, we mark a major milestone: One million pensions protected from devastating cuts thanks to my American Rescue Plan. Workers who earn their retirement should never see their benefits cut due to broken promises or policies that favor the wealthy over working families.

Workers who join a union gain power over the decisions that affect their lives. It's democracy in action. I'm proud to be the most pro-union president in American history – and I'll keep fighting to defend the right of workers to organize.
Workers are voting to join unions at the highest rate in 15 years, finds an analysis out this morning from the progressive Center for American Progress. trib.al/oXo19vj

One year ago, the Equality Act was reintroduced in Congress. As we celebrate Pride Month, we are reminded that the fight to codify civil rights protections for LGBTQI+ Americans is not over. I call on Congress again to send this bill to my desk.

Donald Sutherland was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and one-of-a-kind actor who inspired and entertained the world for decades. My thoughts are with his family and all those who loved him.

On World Refugee Day, the United States reaffirms its commitment to the dignity and protection of refugees worldwide. Here at home, we’re proud to have rebuilt the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program and will resettle more refugees this year than at any time in 30 years.
