Florida Republican Kat Cammack shared Wednesday that her district office had to be evacuated due to death threats she received following a Wall Street Journal story published earlier this week detailed her experiences with an ectopic pregnancy last year.
Cammack, 37, is currently pregnant and expecting her first child in mid-August.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, the congresswoman spoke of 'imminent death threats against me, my unborn child, my family and my staff' based on her revealing her story about a 'nonviable pregnancy with no heartbeat.'
'Since then, we've received thousands of hate-filled messages and dozens of credible threats from pro-abortion activists, which law enforcement is actively investigating,' she added, noting the uptick of violent threats against elected officials.
In a statement sent to the Daily Mail by Cammack's office she also noted:
'This is the unacceptable reality we're facing: sharing a personal health story in an effort to improve healthcare for women and their children can lead to threats, harassment, and evacuation orders'.
'This should be a wake-up call. Women deserve better. And so does the national healthcare dialogue, Cammack added.
The threats come just over a week after a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband were assassinated at their home by a gunman.
Cammack also clarified that she did not vote for Florida's heartbeat law since she serves as a U.S. congresswoman, not a state legislature.
Florida's heartbeat law, passed in 2023, bans abortion once a fetal heartbeat can be detected — typically around six weeks of pregnancy.
'Let me be clear: I will not be intimidated. I won't back down in the fight for women and families. Ensuring women have the resources and care they deserve is critical. We need real conversations about maternal healthcare in America—conversations based on truth, not fear,' Cammack said.
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.

The Wall Street Journal reported that Cammack was about five weeks pregnant when she required a methotrexate injection to treat an ectopic pregnancy — a condition in which the embryo cannot survive.
Cammack is a co-chair of the House Pro-Life Caucus, and opposes abortion, but backs exemptions in the case of rape, incest and when the life of the mother is in danger.
Cammack's team said some of the threats came in as comments on a series of photos she and her husband Matt Harrison took to celebrate her pregnancy.
