'I had my abortion when I was 15 years old, in my home state of Arizona in 1994. It was not a decision I made lightly. But I have never for a moment doubted that it was the right decision for me,' the Elizabeth Warren supporter said.
'But so much has changed - in Arizona and other states - since then. If I were that 15-year-old girl in Arizona today, legally I would have to get parental consent. I would be forced to undergo a medically unnecessary ultrasound, to go to a state-mandated in-person counseling, designed solely to shame me into changing my mind, then take a state-mandated 24-hour time out to make sure I really knewwhat I wanted.
'And finally, I would be forced to give the state a reason why. Well, here is mine: my body belongs to me, not the state. Women and their doctors are in the best position to make informed decisions about what is best for them. No one else.'
Busy (born Elizabeth) closed: 'Abortion is health care, and should not be treated as different from any other health care.'

Philipps has been unemployed since the E! Network canceled her four-nights-a-week talk show Busy Tonight on May 5 after airing 105 episodes over seven months.
'We are trying to figure out if there's a place that makes sense for our show to go to, and hopefully we will be able to figure that out,' the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt guest star Insta-storied at the time.
'I think we will. I have faith in me. I hope that you know we can continue to do the show somewhere else. I hope that we figure that out, because it does seem lame that there would be just, like, just be one woman in late night at a time.'
