John, overturning Roe v. Wade was just the beginning for anti-choice Republicans. Nearly three years later, abortion is now banned in 19 states. But that number could have been a lot higher had it not been for Democratic pro-choice women governors vetoing anti-choice legislation and protecting the right to choose in their states. Take a look:

States where Abortion is Protected: Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Kansas, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine

States with EMILYs List-Endorsed Governor/Candidate: Massachusetts, Arizona, New York, Kansas, Oregon, New Mexico, Maine, Michigan, New Jersey, Virginia

We know extremist Republicans are determined to ban abortion nationwide — especially while they have an anti-choice ally in the White House. That's why the work of Democratic pro-choice governors is (and always has been) so important:

- Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs repealed the state's near-total abortion ban, which had been passed in the Civil War era.
- New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham allocated funds to establish a reproductive health and abortion clinic serving both local residents and those traveling from neighboring states.
- Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer repealed the state's 1931 abortion ban that criminalized nurses and doctors for doing their jobs.

We know the best way to fight anti-choice extremism is to elect Democratic pro-choice women at every level of government — especially Democratic pro-choice women governors. This year alone, we've already endorsed Jocelyn Benson for governor of Michigan, Abigail Spanberger for Virginia governor, and Rep. Mikie Sherrill for New Jersey governor!

Just like our eight other superstar governors, these EMILYs List women will protect the right to abortion for their constituents, as well as access to FDA-approved abortion medication, in vitro fertilization (IVF), and even birth control – which the GOP may come after next.
