Michigan State Representative Laurie Pohutsky made a shocking revelation during a rally at the Michigan Capitol, disclosing that she underwent sterilization surgery to prevent pregnancy in Donald Trump’s America. The 36-year-old Democrat stated that she refused to let her body be treated as currency by an administration that only values her ability to procreate.
Pohutsky, who represents Michigan’s 17th District, emphasized that her decision was made due to uncertainty about future access to contraception under Trump’s administration. Despite facing backlash on social media, she stood by her remarks and defended her right to make decisions about her own health care and future.
In response to her disclosure, Republican State Representative Brad Paquette criticized Pohutsky for publicizing her personal decision, stating that Trump cannot take away her ability to access abortion in Michigan. He condemned her actions as promoting misinformation for political gain and promoting self-harm.
President Trump, who has expressed support for leaving the issue of abortion to the states, recently signed executive orders reinstating policies that restrict government funding for elective abortions and promoting contraception overseas. Pohutsky’s decision highlights the ongoing debates and concerns surrounding reproductive rights under different political administrations.
