Chip in today to elect Dem govs >>
Democratic governors are leading in the fight against Donald Trump. With our two historic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, grassroots momentum is on our side! But this year, nearly 80% of the country is voting for a governor – and with Republicans already investing to beat Dem govs, early support has never been so critical. Will you donate to elect more Democratic governors who will defend our rights and freedoms and stand up to Trump?
How Far Will The Arizona GOP Candidates for Governor Go to Attack Reproductive Freedoms?
After staking out extreme anti-choice stances and celebrating the potential end of Roe v. Wade, the entire GOP field for Arizona governor has stayed silent on Arizona Republican Blake Masters suggesting he opposes contraception.
Kari Lake, Karrin Taylor Robson, and Matt Salmon all support a Texas-style abortion ban in Arizona. Lake opposes exceptions for rape, incest, or the life of the woman and has called abortion the “ultimate sin.” Robson has vowed to make Arizona the most anti-choice state in the country, and Salmon once attempted to bribe a 14-year-old girl out of getting an abortion after she was raped.
“The extreme anti-choice GOP field has made it clear they would all ban abortion if elected, but clearly they wouldn’t stop there,” said DGA Senior Communications Advisor Christina Amestoy. “With their fellow Republicans attacking contraception and a future where women could be jailed for seeking abortion care, there is no end to extreme lengths Kari Lake, Karrin Taylor Robson, and Matt Salmon would go to limit a woman’s freedom over her reproductive choices.”
