Reproductive Freedom for All Arizona Announces First Slate of State Legislature Endorsements
Phoenix, AZ — Today, Reproductive Freedom for All Arizona released its first slate of primary endorsements for candidates running for the Arizona State Legislature in the 2024 election cycle. Arizona has a key opportunity to elect a reproductive freedom majority in both state chambers this election cycle, setting it up to be one of the most important state legislature elections in the country.
State Senate
- Analise Ortiz (LD 24)
State House
- Anna Abeytia (LD 24)
- Héctor Jaramillo (LD 24)
Reproductive Freedom for All Director of Arizona Campaigns Athena Salman released the following statement:
“We need reproductive freedom majorities in both chambers to fight back against these bans and restore reproductive freedom in Arizona, aligning with the 9 in 10 Arizonans who believe in the legal right to abortion. The people of Legislative District 24 deserve leaders who will unconditionally stand for their reproductive freedom—we are proud to be endorsing this slate of candidates. This will be one of many state legislature endorsements to come because we know how critical it will be to finally elect a reproductive freedom majority in both chambers this November.”
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.
In November, on the heels of yet another resounding victory for abortion rights in elections across the country, Reproductive Freedom for All launched its “Vote for Repro Freedom” campaign. This digital and grassroots campaign will harness the momentum of big wins in Ohio, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Kentucky by encouraging voters to commit to voting in 2024 for reproductive freedom champions as the first step in mobilizing the 8 in 10 Americans who support legal abortion.
