Pro-abortion activist raises millions of dollars thanks to Republican congressman insults

Pro-abortion activist raises millions of dollars thanks to Republican congressman insults

After Olivia Juliana becomes the target of congressman Matt Gates’ insults, the activist decides to impeach him by raising money for pro-abortion organizations. Within 72 hours, the price of the counter has already reached more than one million dollars.

This was reported by various American media. Gates, a congressman from Florida, is known as a staunch opponent of abortion. After the Supreme Court paved the way for abortion bans in many states, he regularly confronted pro-abortion activists.

For example, he claimed last weekend that women who struggle to have an abortion are overweight, “look awful” and “have a lower chance of getting pregnant.” And the American media addressed these statements, saying that they would “provoke the ire” of activists. Then Gates posted on Twitter a picture of someone who actually responded to his comments: Olivia Juliana.

She saw his comments as a vulgar form of body shaming. The 19-year-old also reacted with sarcasm at Undisputed reputation Gates, accused of making it sexual advances for the palace. But she also decided to immediately start a collection campaign for “Gen-Z for change”. By Thursday, the counter was already at $1 million, and on Friday it was already over $1.4 million.

Juliana says in reaction that she brought in much more than she thought. She also launched the hashtag #ThanksMattGetz. Gates has not yet commented on the success of the fundraising campaign.
