LANSING — Today marks the two-year anniversary of the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade, and Mike Rogers, Sandy Pensler, and Justin Amash all celebrated the Dobbs decision that ripped women’s rights to make their own personal medical decisions away from them.
The Michigan GOP Senate candidates all have extensive anti-abortion records and support dangerous abortion bans.
Rogers, Pensler, and Amash all put women’s rights at risk:
- Mike Rogers celebrated the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, “consistently voted” for abortion bans, and co-sponsored and voted for anti-abortion bills that would have criminalized and banned abortion. He said “abortions should be legal only to prevent the death of the mother,” In Congress, Rogers co-sponsored four anti-IVF bills and “repeatedly co-sponsored bills” to suspend FDA approval of mifepristone. Rogers refuses to protect IVF in the Senate and won’t answer for his past fetal personhood legislation votes. If Rogers had “lived in Michigan instead of Florida” in 2022, he would have voted against Proposal 3.
- Sandy Pensler described Roe v. Wade “terrible” and “tyrannical.” Pensler said that he has “the same position on being pro-life as President Reagan and President Trump.”
- Justin Amash supported the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, supports an abortion ban, and co-sponsored a bill to restrict IVF. He believes that “life begins at conception” and describes himself as “100% pro-life.”
