First Line of Defense Against a National All-Trimester Abortion Mandate
Washington, D.C. – SBA Pro-Life America celebrated tonight as Republicans secured at least a 51-seat majority in the U.S. Senate, preventing Democrats from eliminating the filibuster and enacting an all-trimester abortion mandate by simple majority vote.
This election cycle, SBA Pro-Life America and its affiliated entities raised and spent $92 million to protect life across America. Overall, the groups’ largest ever voter contact program reached more than 10 million persuadable and low-turnout voters across eight key battleground states: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Montana, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Pro-life canvassers with SBA Pro-Life America and its partner Women Speak Out PAC made more than four million visits to voters’ homes over the course of the cycle to support Senate candidates like Bernie Moreno (Ohio) and defeat pro-abortion Democrats.
“Senate Democrats like Sherrod Brown went ‘all in’ on abortion – spending more on TV advertising on it than any other issue – and it appears to be a spectacular failure. Voters reject their agenda of a national all-trimester abortion mandate,” said SBA Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser. “In contrast to GOP candidates like Bernie Moreno who support the people’s right to pass commonsense limits and provide real options for moms in need, Democrats like Sherrod Brown could not run away from their extreme record of supporting painful late-term abortions of healthy babies and even letting babies who survive failed abortions die.
“We’re proud of our team’s hard work to reach 10 million voters overall – including 4 million visits to their homes – to expose the Democrats’ pro-abortion extremism and educate Americans about the lives at stake in this election. Again and again we saw minds and votes change via person-to-person conversations at the door, with many voters learning the truth for the first time.”
Women Speak Out PAC is a partner of SBA Pro-Life America, a super PAC amplifying the voices of women opposed to abortion extremists. Since 2014, Women Speak Out PAC has built the largest pro-life on-the-ground political campaign in the country.
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.
