Kierra Johnson, the executive director of Unite for Reproductive and Gender Equity, an abortion rights group, suggested young people view women’s health issues from a different perspective.

“There is energy among young people around these issues — it just may not be happening in the way that Rep. Wasserman Shultz is used to seeing,” she said in a statement. “The young people that are drawn into this movement today don’t see reproductive justice as wholly separate from LGBTQ equality or from racial justice or economic justice or a host of other issues.”
