Rep. Kat Cammack said she was forced to evacuate her office Wednesday due to “imminent death threats” against her and her family. In a post on X, the Florida Republican wrote that she had received “thousands of hate-filled messages and dozens of credible threats from pro-abortion activists” after she spoke publicly earlier this week about her treatment last year for a “life-threatening ectopic pregnancy.” Cammack told The Wall Street Journal she was five weeks pregnant at the time of the procedure, which took place just after the state’s strict six-week abortion ban limit came into effect. (The law does not ban termination of ectopic pregnancies.) “To those spreading misinformation: I did not vote for Florida’s heartbeat law; I serve in the U.S. House of Representatives, not the Florida Legislature,” Cammack wrote on X, adding that she would not be intimidated by threats to her safety. The congresswoman, who opposes abortion rights and is co-chair of the House Pro-Life Caucus, is now pregnant again and due this summer.
Today, we had to evacuate our offices due to imminent death threats against me, my unborn child, my family, and my staff. These threats erupted after the Wall Street Journal reported on my life-threatening ectopic pregnancy—a nonviable pregnancy with no heartbeat.
