Abortion measures on ballots in record number of states

“This shows overwhelmingly that voters believe in abortion access, and it disputes all the misinformation and disinformation that we’ve been hearing about abortion access and belief that people do not care about it,” Christian F. Nunes, the president of the National Organization for Women, which advocates for women’s rights, told NewsNation.

“People do care about abortion access,” she said. “Lawmakers writing these oppressive laws were not taking into consideration what the voters really wanted, and were writing for their own sense of power and control, not thinking or even hearing out their constituents so many of them took matters into their own hands.”
