Republicans in the Montana State Senate just introduced the first anti-abortion bill of 2023.

Montanans care deeply about their individual freedoms and the government has no right to make health decisions for people. The right to individual privacy is protected in our state’s Constitution, and up until now, that has covered the right to keep medical decisions between a woman and her doctor. This bill, if passed, would have the government remove that right for hundreds of thousands of women across the state.

It’s a damn outrage — but not at all surprising.

Politicians across the country have been focused on taking this freedom away from women for decades, and now they’re closer than ever before to succeeding in Montana.

Sunday is the 50th anniversary of the landmark Roe v. Wade decision — the one that enshrined the right to choose for women across the country, and the one the Supreme Court gutted last June. Women born today will have fewer rights than their mothers did. And Republican politicians are to blame.

Let me be very clear about this: America was founded on the principle of freedom and I have always defended a woman’s right to make her own medical decisions.

Our best chance at doing that is by protecting and expanding our Senate majority. The last time the Women’s Health Protection Act came to a vote, we simply didn’t have the votes — but if we organize, work hard, and pick up a few more seats, we have a chance to change that.

If the Senate does nothing, conservative state legislatures like ours in Montana will have complete power to turn back the clock on women’s reproductive rights. The time to fight back is now.

If you’re still with me in this fight, please pitch in any amount right now to help us elect a pro-choice Senate majority, and make progress in the fight to enshrine reproductive rights into law. [[link removed]]
