Reproductive Freedom for All Michigan Endorses Natalie Price for Michigan State Legislature
Detroit, MI — Today, Reproductive Freedom for All Michigan announced its endorsement of Natalie Price (HD-5) for reelection to the Michigan House of Representatives. Price is a champion for reproductive freedom who sponsored House Bill 4955, a crucial piece of the Reproductive Health Act passed by the Michigan legislature in 2023.
Reproductive Freedom for All Director of Michigan Campaigns, Shanay Watson-Whittaker, released the following statement:
Here in Michigan, we’ve shown our country what’s possible when we elect champions and secure reproductive freedom majorities in the state legislature. Sending Rep. Price back to the State House is essential to continuing our work to proactively protect and expand abortion rights and access. We are grateful for her leadership, and our members are ready to mobilize to ensure she is elected this November.
This announcement builds on Reproductive Freedom for All Michigan’s ongoing efforts to endorse and support candidates committed to protecting and advancing reproductive freedom. Reproductive Freedom for All is on the ground in states across the country—including Michigan—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.
