​WAWH Opposes Nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh

7/18/2018

 
MADISON – Statement from Sara Finger, Executive Director of the Wisconsin Alliance for Women’s Health (WAWH):
 
“The nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court is a direct threat to the right of women in this country to make their own health care decisions.  If Judge Kavanaugh is confirmed, the Supreme Court will almost certainly explicitly overrule Roe v. Wade or silently undermine the remaining protections of Roe by allowing states hostile to women’s reproductive health to effectively regulate access to abortion out of existence.  As a result, the stakes could not be higher for states like Wisconsin, which currently has a law on the books that will make abortion a crime should the Court overrule or refuse to enforce Roe.” 
 
“Millions of Americans have advocated and fought for the right of women to make their own health care decisions in this country.  It would be a travesty to turn back the clock on this progress.  The research is clear from other countries that criminalizing abortion endangers women’s health and safety, all while doing virtually nothing to actually reduce abortion rates.”
 
“Because his nomination represents such a dire threat to the health and wellbeing of Wisconsin women, WAWH strongly urges both Senators Baldwin and Johnson to oppose Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination.”

Sara, I would love to help organize a rally this week for letting our voices be heard on this subject! Media attention from Madison would be wonderful! Please contact me when you have a minute to talk. Thank you!
