Your Body, Your Rights
October 2, 2021
On October 2, 2021, with tears in her eyes Del. Shaneka Henson passionately spoke about protecting women’s right to choose. In the wake of the SCOTUS’ imminent overturn of Roe v. Wade, Del. Shaneka Henson voted to authorize $3.8 Million for training new and existing abortion care providers in Maryland.
Del. Shaneka Henson voted to protect Medicaid funding for abortion care when Delegate Ghrist (R- Caroline) pulled it out for a separate vote at 1:44:00 in the live-streamed voting session. Del. Shaneka Henson voted again to protect abortion care funding when Delegate Rose (R- Carroll) offered an amendment to strip abortion funding from SB290 on a floor.
Delegate Shaneka Henson voted to send a choice to the ballot, to give all Marylanders the chance to engraft women’s bodily autonomy in MD’s constitution. Unfortunately, the MD Senate refused the bill, authored by Speaker Adrienne Jones, and stopped it from being added to the 2022 ballot for referendum.
