Before declaring her candidacy for the Tennessee state House, 28-year-old Allie Phillips joined a lawsuit that challenged conservative states' sweeping abortion bans
Upon receiving the news, Phillips and her husband felt that termination was their best option. However, with Tennessee's stringent abortion ban that came into effect in August 2022, Phillips was forced to travel to New York alone to receive the procedure.“My doctor informed me that if I chose to stay pregnant, I would be putting my own life at risk,” Phillips stated in her campaign video.
“I was in a city I’ve never been in, far away from my family, friends, doctors, caregivers,” Phillips shared in a TikTok video that has since gone viral. “I was in that clinic alone. I was told my daughter’s heart had stopped alone. I went into surgery and came out alone. Nobody, nobody should have to go through something like that alone.”Since sharing her story, Phillips has amassed a substantial following, with many resonating deeply with her experience.
