Reproductive rights

Fabiola Santiago’s column, Lawmakers trampling women’s rights, Jan. 26, should be a wake-up call for all women who believe that reproductive rights are a personal decision and not the decision of some political hacks in the Florida Legislature in Tallahassee.

Representatives Jose R. Olivia, R-Miami Lakes, Carlos Trujillo, R-Doral, and Charles Van Zant, R-Keystone Heights, along with many other Republican state representatives and senators, should be given their walking papers on November by women who believe that Republican state legislators are anti-reproductive rights.

Irving Gerson,

Miami
