Now-Republican state Rep. Tricia Cotham went from sharing her own abortion story in speaking out against NC's 72-hour waiting period bill in 2015 — as a Democrat — to switching parties and now voting for a bill that imposes a 12-week limit and doubles-down on the waiting period https://t.co/BGGqngibwt
