Republicans worked overtime to ban abortion, and Michigan Democrats got to work protecting reproductive freedom
LANSING — Ahead of the anniversary of the US Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson, it is more clear than ever that abortion is on the ballot, and only Democrats are committed to defending reproductive freedom.
On this anniversary, Michigan Democratic Party Chair Lavora Barnes released the following statement:
“While Republicans continue to work overtime to undermine abortion rights, Michigan Democrats have proven that when we get power, we take action. In the face of the Dobbs decision that directly attacked reproductive freedom, voters turned out and Michigan Democrats not only won a trifecta, but we got to work.
We repealed the archaic 1931 state abortion ban and went on to expand abortion access for millions of Michiganders and Americans. We will continue to fight back against the GOP that is deadset on turning the clock backward on abortion rights across the country.”
