• I just want to remind people that the task of those who support reproductive rights and reproductive justice didn't change based on who is in the White House. We have leadership that is not supportive of what we're trying to do, but the demand for justice shouldn't be modulated.

• Lo peor que podemos hacer es asumir que el Colegio Electoral [votación] que resultó en la elección de Donald Trump representa un mandato. No es así. No obtuvo la mayoría del voto popular; ese voto fue para Hillary Clinton. Eso significa que esos votos representan la conciencia de la nación, que es que el aborto debe ser legal, que la anticoncepción y la planificación familiar son cuestiones de salud y prevención, que el derecho de la mujer a la privacidad reproductiva es la ley del país y debe seguir siéndolo.

• There's a willful ignorance. We indulge people who are willfully misrepresenting the facts. I don't think those [anti-choice] congresspeople are as much benignly misguided as they are intentionally and willfully ignorant of the facts of reproduction. That lends itself very well to them being ideologically driven and carrying out agendas that, if they were to be really honest about the facts, would be a tougher sell.

• Donald Trump has every intention to repeal the Affordable Care Act, as much because it's known as Obamacare [as because he wants] to try and deconstruct the legacy of President Obama. But that has implications that mean women who were accessing family planning and contraception as a preventative service with no co-pay will lose access to that coverage. We [will] only see an exacerbation of the things we were engaged in trying to prevent - like unplanned pregnancy and the need for abortion, which creates a societal dilemma.
