This summer, we learned that our state is ranked in the top three for maternal mortality and ranked 11th for infant mortality. This reality will only worsen with the near-total abortion ban Republicans are attempting to implement.
As women in our state continue to see their reproductive freedoms chipped away, Jefferson Shreve's silence says it all. Whether as a candidate for office or a Republican mega-donor, Jefferson has consistently supported an anti-choice agenda.
If elected, we know that Jefferson Shreve will act as a rubber-stamp to the most conservative extreme voices in his party.
Not on Mayor Joe's watch.
Indianapolis deserves a mayor who has consistently stood with the women of this city. Mayor Joe is using every tool at my disposal to protect women's reproductive freedoms, whether that's supporting our medical community and women's rights advocates, or pressuring the business community to voice their opposition to these draconian abortion bans, while urging our state-level colleagues to repeal these laws.
It's going to take all of us to win this fight, and we're going to need you right on our side. Join us today >>
Thank you,
