“Vowed to keep fighting to restore and protect abortion access nationwide and to pass the Women's Health Protection Act, which would codify a statutory right to abortion in federal law after the reversal of Roe v. Wade.”

Assessments
evidence-backed verdictsThese are sourced verdicts from fact-checkers or community evidence reviews — not opinions.
Both cited PRIMARY sources are reachable and support the CHAMPIONED outcome, and both quotes appear verbatim. (1) The Baldwin/Blumenthal senate.gov press release confirms Blumenthal co-led (with Sen. Baldwin) the March 8, 2023 reintroduction of the Women's Health Protection Act with 47 Senate Democratic caucus sponsors, to restore/codify abortion rights after the reversal of Roe; the cited Blumenthal quote ("...reverse the death sentence handed down to American women... about women's rights, individual rights, and human rights") is present word-for-word. (2) The Blumenthal senate.gov floor-speech transcript confirms his same-day floor remarks urging passage; the cited "I trust women... to decide what is right for them individually" quote is present verbatim, including the trailing clause, which I specifically re-verified. This is sustained, active leadership (lead author + reintroduction + floor advocacy), matching CHAMPIONED (led/drove beyond a single vote). The bill has not been enacted (lacks 60 votes to overcome a filibuster), so FULL is correctly declined; the failure to "pass" stems from chamber composition, not lack of effort. The rating neither fabricates quotes nor overstates the evidence.
