John,
Just hours ago, the Arizona Supreme Court upheld a pre-statehood law that bans abortions in almost all cases.
This law effectively means an end to abortions in Arizona.
Horrified doesn’t begin to cover how I feel.
This law was passed in 1864. Before Arizona was a state and before women could vote or own property.
Now, it will insert politicians into the most intimate decisions a person will make about their bodies. It will take away rights and freedoms earned by generations of Arizona women. And it will mandate prison time for anyone who helps a woman get an abortion, which could include friends and family as well as medical professionals.
When Donald Trump and Juan Ciscomani say abortion should be left up to the states with a wink and a nod — this is what they mean.
This must be reversed by the people. In Congress, I will fight to restore Roe v. Wade into law, and that starts by defeating Juan Ciscomani, who has voted again and again to restrict abortion access.
Winning this November will mean protecting abortion rights nationwide. Will you help my campaign win this ultra-competitive race by chipping in now?
