Anti-abortion advocates at a leading national group have been actively engaging with voters in the 2024 election cycle. Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America and Women Speak Out PAC have collectively knocked on over 4 million doors, with nearly 1 million visits conducted by student canvassers. Their goal is to reach 10 million voters, particularly in key battleground states.
Marjorie Dannenfelser, President of SBA Pro-Life America, criticized Vice President Kamala Harris's abortion policies, highlighting Harris's commitment to restoring reproductive freedom nationwide if elected. This stance has drawn a contrast with GOP candidates who prioritize setting limits on abortion and empowering women with necessary resources.
Former President Donald Trump, in a notable shift, stated that he would not sign a national abortion ban if re-elected, diverging from his previous campaign promise. The issue of abortion has taken center stage in the upcoming election, with voters in at least 10 states set to decide on the future of abortion access.
The Supreme Court's Dobbs decision, overturning Roe v. Wade in 2022, has spurred a wave of proposed ballot measures and trigger laws in several states. Seven states have already voted on abortion access post the Roe v. Wade overturn, with strong support for abortion rights among voters.
