Here at Team King-Siri HQ, we are devastated by the news out of the Supreme Court this morning. However, we are proud to be working on behalf of the Pro-Choice Maryland endorsed ticket in this race, John King and Michelle Siri.

A King-Siri administration will make sure that abortion providers have the funding and resources, including trained providers, that they need to provide this health care service to people from Maryland and other states seeking safe, affordable abortions.

It’s not enough to just be pro-choice anymore. Abortion is health care and health care is a human right, and it's time we start acting like it. We must begin the process of enshrining the right to an abortion in Maryland's constitution NOW. T

hat's why today John and Michelle called on Speaker Adrienne Jones and State Senate Leader Bill Ferguson to call a special legislative session to ensure all abortion providers have the funding to provide adequate services to those in need of reproductive care NOW.

Maryland must step up as a national safe haven for safe and legal abortion care and if you're ready to take action to help make that happen, here are a few things you can do right now to help protect reproductive rights here in Maryland.

I wanted to share my thoughts about the recent news out of the Supreme Court. I am absolutely devastated and outraged by the court’s ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade, which will decimate access to abortion – especially for low-income women and women of color – across the country.

This ruling makes clear as day that it is not enough to just be pro-choice anymore. I’ve dedicated my life to fighting tirelessly for women’s reproductive rights - from my time as Board President of Planned Parenthood Maryland to my current role as Executive Director of The Maryland Women’s Law Center. That fight will not end in a King-Siri administration and John and I pledge to make Maryland a North Star for the nation for safe and legal abortion care.

Though Maryland lawmakers had the foresight to codify Roe in 1992, with this latest ruling it’s absolutely dire that we pass an amendment enshrining the right to an abortion in Maryland’s constitution. If you believe that every woman has the right to make decisions about her own body, will you stand with John and I by adding your name to our petition to enshrine abortion rights in Maryland’s state constitution?

With this horrendous ruling from SCOTUS and the federal government failing to take action to protect our bodily autonomy, it’s never been more important to elect reproductive champions to statewide office. That’s why I am so proud our campaign was recently endorsed by Pro-Choice Maryland Action, the state’s leading reproductive rights group. Our administration will stop at nothing to keep bans off women’s bodies because John and I believe wholeheartedly that abortion is health care, and health care is a human right.

This decision not only guts abortion rights, but is a direct attempt to severely restrict access to contraception, IVF (in-vitro fertilization) treatments, and reproductive health care. My two beautiful children were both born with the help of IVF, and now it will be that much harder for thousands of women seeking IVF treatments to start families of their own. Every woman deserves ownership over her own fertility, family, and body. Full stop.
If you agree, please add your name to support enshrining the right to an abortion in Maryland today.

We’re all in this fight together, and as Maryland’s next Lieutenant Governor, I’ll always be in your corner.

Onwards and upwards,

Michelle Siri
