PENNSYLVANIA – In response to Politico’s report that the Supreme Court has voted to strike down Roe V. Wade, Pennsylvania Democratic Party Chairwoman Nancy Patton Mills issued the following statement:
“Republicans’ attacks on abortion access, birth control and women’s health care have made it crystal clear that the stakes of our 2022 elections couldn’t be higher. Republicans have spent the last decade trying to strip health care access away from women and families, and this ruling would be a win for radical opponents of health care.
Our only way to fight this ruling is to make Josh Shapiro our next governor, protect the Democratic Senate majority by flipping Pennsylvania’s Senate seat, and send representatives to Harrisburg who value a woman’s right to choose. Reproductive freedoms and access to health care are absolutely on the ballot this November.”
