American Lawmaker Sterilizes Self To Avoid Becoming Pregnant While Trump Is President

A Michigan lawmaker has sterilized herself to avoid becoming pregnant while Trump is president.

Rep. Laurie Pohutsky (D-Livonia) said: “Just under two weeks ago, I underwent surgery to ensure that I would never have to navigate a pregnancy in Donald Trump’s America.”

“I refuse to let my body be treated as currency by an administration that only sees value in my ability to procreate.”

“If you know people who are questioning how serious this is, I’m going to repeat myself: A sitting government official opted for voluntary sterilization because she was uncertain she would be able to access contraception in the future.”
