is using her voice and her platform to fight for equality every chance she gets, regardless of how critics may feel about it. alum spoke with ET's Denny Directo at The Wrap’s Power Women Summit on Wednesday, and she opened up about her role as"I have always been an outspoken ally for LGBTQ communities, for Black Lives Matter. I've always tried to fight for equality and love for everyone," Sweetin said.
"I feel like if you have a voice and you have a platform, it is incumbent on you to be loud and use it," she said. "Whether people like it all the time or not, sometimes." With the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization ruling effectively overturning Roe v. Wade, and increased threats to numerous equal rights laws, Sweetin said she feels like letting other people fight isn't an option.
"For me, when I am in fear, I get to work. Which means there is something that I have to do, that I have to change, that I have to throw myself into, and that's what I try and do," she added.
