Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) joined the widespread and growing chorus of criticism of Alabama’s strict new abortion law as she broke down what the effective banning of the procedure is really about.

The lawmaker tweeted early Thursday that abortion bans “aren’t just about controlling women’s bodies.”

“They’re about controlling women’s sexuality. Owning women,” she wrote. “From limiting birth control to banning comprehensive sex ed, US religious fundamentalists are working hard to outlaw sex that falls outside their theology.”
