Whitehouse was righteously PISSED OFF. He's polite, he's straightforward, but watch how he signed off. Jammed the off button and didn't say 'I yield back'. That was the congressional equivalent of shouting a bunch of cussing across the aisle at the NITWITS who support this kind of nuthouse legislative interference in people's lives.
Thank you Senator Whitehouse for letting us know what is going on in this country regarding women’s health. Get rid of MAGA and do it November 5th. Save our country and women’s health.
@imperialmotoring3789 It's the Maga who hates everyone that isn't white. Most won't admit it or try to divert it into something other than the truth.

Or any girl or woman who we're facing the terrible situation of needing health care for non-consensual impregnation or non-consensual endangering of their bodies and lives by wanted fetuses or children (depending on stage). While worrying about their survival, worrying about possible partners or children they leave behind and worrying about an abusive sexistic society who abandons women in need of medical support and safety and care!
I am terrified for my granddaughters to be pregnant in this country. The stories I have heard of the horrors they have to endure make me physically sick..

@@dagi72164 I agree that it is both patriarchy and religious beliefs but the actual politicians that support that type of legislation are not "religious" per se rather using others beliefs to manipulate them to follow / vote on one issue while ignoring so many others.
See...this is an abomination against women who need medical care from their Doctors. The Chief Justice's should have to endure this horrible situation.
Thank you Senator Whitehouse for your important statements re Women's healthcare....your strong intelligent voice is heard and appreciated...be well and continue your speaking...what a gift you are to our world....L. Martin
If they'll take away your right to reproductive healthcare, do you really think they'll respect your right to vote? Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, of The Great State of Rhode Island, speaking to truth to 'the powers that be' is a true champion for American Justice--not as it's often meted out, but as it's promised to be.
THATS ONLY THE BEGINNING THEY WILL TAKE MORE RIGHTS AWAY FROM MEN AND WOMEN AND THEY WANT TO BRAINWASH OUR CHILDREN TO THINK LIKE THEM THATS WHY THEY WANT PRIVATE SCHOOLS AND NOT PUBLIC SCHOOLS. WE HAVE TO VOTE BLUE DOWN THE BALLOT WISCONSIN AND AMERICA EVERY STATE GO BLUE DOWN THE BALLOT. TRUMP NEEDS TO BE IN PRISON FOR HIS CRIMES
It's his JOB to do so. As it is for all 535 members of Congress who are paid a taxpayer provided salary, benefits package, travel expenses, retirement/pension and a $70 a day meal allowance everyday Congress is in session. They're HIRED via the electoral process to do the will of the American people and to implement the priorities of the people. That's actually their JOB. Sadly that REALITY is rarely acknowledged in Washington DC WALLSTREET INC. Senator Whitehouse is one of the RARE ONES who remembers.
@@71suns Yes! One forgets as it seems that they occupy themselves with “other” work that has nothing to do with us. It seemed wrong to not thank him for doing his job . . .
My lifetime medical decisions between patient and attending doctor. Patient Privacy Act. If patient chooses speak freely to others medical treatment this is human rights. No individual has the right to impose access to medical records without authorization signature form.
WE NEED TO PUT THIS EXCELLENT MAN< THIS PUBLIC SERVANT IN THE WHITE HOUSE! Whitehouse for President, whenever he wants it..... over and over, so right on so many key issues!!!
Rhode Island made such a good decision in electing a smart, compassionate man to represent them. All states deserve this thoughtfulness and knowledge of FACTS.
That must make doctors in the states where abortion is illegal really angry. Unable to uphold their medical vow. I heard doctors, particularly obgyns, are leaving those states.
All drs. They should put out a statement that they are all leaving the State..because WE have to live with death of our patients that we know we could have saved and that is no long acceptable to are own health? We are leaving to live the life we had before? OPENLY ANNOUNCE YOU CAN NOT DO THE KILLING YOU WANT US TO DO ,! 😭😢😭😢😭😢....it you can not...do nothing and walk away day in and day out in the states hospitals.... YOU TOOK AN OATH TO DO NO HARM......STAND UP AND BE COUNTED......OR STAY AND BE COMPLICENT IN EACH DEATH, CHOOSE....PUT IT BACK ON THE LEGISLATORS BACKS .???
This is the calibre of representation that should be the norm. A person who is prepared to stand up for the rights of others, instead of the political weasels that we see too often.
There is a tremendous disrespect for women. Has anyone ever heard the term "popping out a baby"? That's something not said by a woman who has given birth. Giving birth is always a give and take. Some women give more than others. The child only takes what is required. But when the political assembly of a group of men belittle the process of caring for a pregnancy and giving birth and the after care of that ordeal, it creates an anger in women against men and against politicians. Someone like Senator Whitehouse rises to heroic status for simply understanding and speaking the truth. Men, he is your example - where are your standards?
OMG this is absolutely despicable that a doctor can’t do what they have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on training to become a Doctor, consultant, surgeon, etc absolutely sickening….NO JUDGE has any right telling and woman what she can or can’t do with HER OWN BODY!! This is beyond evil….
Thank You Sir. Frankly I don’t think any who did not hear her testimony would care one way or another. This is the level of absurd debased grasp for the power to be re-elected by those who are so called ‘prolife’ currently in power in some areas of this country. As doctors are put through these difficult circumstances just wait until they leave those states to practice elsewhere or even worse they commit suicidal because they have had to endure the outcome of these horrific situations.
The Dobbs decision to eliminate abortion is causing Doctors to break their Hippocratic Oath to “do no harm”. Thank you Senator for bringing this poignant story.
