Reproductive Freedom for All Arizona Announces Second Slate of State Legislature Endorsements
Phoenix, AZ — Today, Reproductive Freedom for All Arizona announced its latest round of primary endorsements for candidates seeking reelection for the Arizona State Legislature House of Representatives in the 2024 election cycle. Arizona stands at a pivotal moment to secure a reproductive freedom majority in both chambers this cycle, positioning it as one of the most critical state legislature elections nationwide.
State House
- Representative Oscar De Los Santos (LD 11)
- Representative Junelle Cavero (LD 11)
Reproductive Freedom for All Director of Arizona Campaigns Athena Salman released the following statement:
“To effectively combat abortion bans and protect our fundamental rights in our state of Arizona, we must secure reproductive freedom majorities in both legislative chambers. Nine in ten Arizonans believe in the legal right to abortion—and they’re mobilizing to elect candidates who will fight for them. It is because of champions like these that we were able to repeal the 1864 total abortion ban, and we’re proud to endorse them in these races. Their leadership is crucial for Legislative District 11 in countering ongoing assaults on abortion access by anti-abortion extremists.”
This announcement builds on Reproductive Freedom for All Arizona’s ongoing efforts to endorse and support candidates committed to protecting and advancing reproductive freedom.
Reproductive Freedom for All is already on the ground in states across the country—including Arizona— as part of its largest-ever electoral program, working to ensure reproductive freedom champions are elected from statehouses to the White House and that we protect and expand abortion rights and access through ballot measures. Our 2024 program connects voters with opportunities to make immediate, tangible changes to help build a future where everyone is free to make their own decisions about their bodies, lives, and families.
