Washington, D.C. â As Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris announced Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate, Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America slammed the Democratic Partyâs extremism:
âKamala Harris and Tim Walz make up the most pro-abortion presidential ticket America has ever seen. There is no daylight between them on this issue,â said SBA Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser. âWalz is no moderate when it comes to abortion. Last year Walz signed the âPRO Act,â which was at the time the countryâs most extreme law enshrining abortion on demand throughout pregnancy as a âfundamental rightâ without limits of any kind. He then signed further legislation grossly expanding taxpayer-funded abortion, stripping away the stateâs informed consent protections, and significantly weakening protections for babies born alive.
âWith Harris and Walz as standard-bearers, the Democratic Party has become the âShout Your Abortionâ party, with no limits for any reason even in the seventh, eighth or ninth month. In contrast to President Trump, JD Vance and the GOP, who support the right of the people to set limits on abortion and provide real options for mothers in need, Democrats have made it clear nothing â not the checks and balances built into our government, not the humanity of unborn children and not the true needs of women â will stop them from imposing all-trimester abortion nationwide.
âThe pro-life movement must fully engage to defeat the Harris-Walz extreme abortion agenda in November. Our team is working tirelessly to reach 10 million voters, with four million visits to the homes of voters in key battleground states.â
This election cycle, SBA Pro-Life America and its affiliated entities plan to spend $92 million to protect life across America. The groupsâ largest-ever voter contact program includes reaching voters across eight key battleground states: Arizona, Georgia, Montana, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio.
Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America is a network of more than one million pro-life Americans nationwide, dedicated to ending abortion by electing national leaders and advocating for laws that save lives, with a special calling to promote pro-life women leaders.
