The premise of Memorial Day is to remember those who died in military service for our country. This Memorial Day, I will be remembering a very special Navy veteran who died after providing much-needed and hard-to-find specialized care to thousands of American women. He did so despite constant threats to his own life and those around him. He bravely continued on, even after being shot in both arms.
He never gave up on women, and we should never give up on continuing his mission--to ensure that women have access to legal and safe abortions. The best tribute we can make to Dr. Tiller this Memorial Day is to bravely speak out and share our pro-choice views, commit to electing pro-choice legislators, and most of all, TRUST WOMEN.
