The government should empower women to get the best treatment. A woman should NEVER fear that lawmakers in Columbia are limiting her rights or her access to basic healthcare.

Men have the right to talk about anything with their doctor, without fear of reprisal or judgment.   Under current laws, women do not have that right, and doctors are living in fear that the best answer for their patient might go against some lawmaker’s personal views.
