(CNSNews.com) - Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D.-Calif.), a Roman Catholic, sent out a series of tweets on Good Friday and Easter that started with a condemnation of a federal judge who issued an injunction against the use of an abortion-inducing pill and ended with her calling people to “prayerfully reflect on the many blessings of our faith."
“Today, an extremist Republican-appointed judge recklessly ruled to block nationwide access to safe and effective abortion medication that has been on the market for decades,” Pelosi said in a tweet on Good Friday.
“Republicans will never rest in their cruel, tyrannical quest to disrespect a woman’s right to choose,” she said.
Pelosi was referring to a ruling issued last week by Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, a federal judge in Texas. This ruling determined that the Food and Drug Administration had incorrectly approved mifepristone, an abortion pill. This week, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ruled that the pill will remain available as the case moves through the courts.
However, just one tweet about Judge Kacsmaryk’s ruling was not enough for Pelosi on Good Friday. She sent out two more.
“This outrageous attack on women’s health freedom threatens to rip away access to the full range of reproductive health care, further restrict the right to choose and inflict suffering on millions of women and their families,” Pelosi said in a second tweet.
“Democrats are fighting back, because every woman must have freedom to get the reproductive care that they need,” Pelosi said in a third Good Friday tweet.
After these three pro-abortion Good Friday tweets, Pelosi did not tweet again until Easter Sunday.
“Easter is a glorious holiday, as we prayerfully reflect on the many blessings of our faith, family and friendship,” Pelosi said in her Easter tweet. “May this Holy Season serve as a source of renewal and hope for all.
“From my family to yours, Happy Easter!” Pelosi said.
