"Booker continued to argue that eliminating the filibuster would be dangerous with Republicans in power, who would "literally" enact policies "that could cause people's death."

 

"But understand my perspective on this, which comes from decades of living in one of the most vulnerable communities in the country," he said. "And if Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, Donald Trump for the last two years had complete sway, they wouldn't have just changed policy, which is nice, they would have hurt people in my community."

 

"Literally doing policies that could cause people's death," Booker said.

 

Booker's example of Republican policies that could cause people to die was "attacking" Planned Parenthood, the nation's largest abortion provider, which performed 332,757 abortions in fiscal year 2017.

 

"When we had a Republican governor in the state of New Jersey just something like attacking Planned Parenthood for women in my community who rely on Planned Parenthood for their health care," Booker said. "Planned Parenthood has had to end hours, close options.""
