Health care decisions, especially whether to continue a pregnancy, should be made between a patient, their doctor, and their loved ones, not politicians. 

Now that the U.S. Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade, Wisconsin's 173-year-old criminal abortion ban is preventing Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin and others from providing abortion services. This leaves patients unable to access the care that’s best for them and it has medical providers fearing jail time for providing what can be life-saving care.

Our state lawmakers must repeal this the criminal abortion ban and make sure women in Wisconsin can access abortion care and decide their own futures.

Governor Evers has stood up for Wisconsinites time after time, including vetoing 5 anti-abortion bills this last year.  Often, Evers is the only one ensuring our rights are protected when Wisconsin Republicans don’t put people first.

Wisconsin Republicans are a few seats away from gaining a supermajority in the state legislature. If this happens they could override the Governors' vetos and pass any abortion restrictions they see fit.

We must elect lawmakers who will protect the veto and protect our rights.
 

Along with access to safe and legal abortion, Wisconsinites deserve access to affordable health care across the board. Still, too many families must decide between getting care when they’re sick and getting the bills paid. 

We need leaders who support healthy communities. Luckily, we have candidates on the ballot who know how important it is to expand Badgercare, ensure our rural communities have the necessary health care workers, and fund mental health services.
