Florida Rep. Kat Cammack says her office was evacuated due to death threats

Rep. Kat Cammack said late Wednesday her offices were evacuated due to "imminent death threats" against her and her family.

The Florida Republican said on X the threats began after a recent Wall Street Journal story about her experience with an ectopic pregnancy last year. She told the paper that emergency room doctors were hesitant to treat the life-threatening complication because they were worried about running afoul of Florida's strict six-week abortion ban — an incident she blamed on "fearmongering" by opponents of the state law.

"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," Cammack wrote in her post, which also included screenshots of several social media comments.
