congresswoman barbara lee also testified about having an abortion. >> i am sharing my story even thoughis personal and nobody's business and certainly not the business of politicians. but i am compelled to speak out because of the real risks of the cost of turning back to the days before roe v. wade, to the days when i was a teenager and had a back alley abortion in mexico. i was raised in el paso, texas and attended catholic school, so growing up sex education was nonexistent. adolescent sexual and reproductive health were not discussed any meaningful way, and because of that, i was not sure how you got pregnant. most of what i learned most from pages of magazines and hearsay from my peers. i lived in a loving extended family household with my wonderful parents and grandparents who wanted me to make straight a's, practice the piano day and night, and of course, stay away from boys. after grammar school, we moved to california. when i turned 16, i missed my period. i was confused and afraid, not knowing if i was pregnant or not. i didn't know what to do. in those days, this is in the mi
