Congresswoman Gwen Moore Applauds State Supreme Court Decision Striking Down Wisconsin Abortion Ban

“I am thrilled by this ruling, which reaffirms that women should be able to control their own bodies. After the devastating Dobbs decision, women in Wisconsin were forced to abide by a 176-year-old law, made before women had the right to vote! It put their health and lives at risk and robbed them of their autonomy. Today’s decision gives women the certainty to seek the abortion care they need.

At the same time, women’s health care is still under attack, and is happening right now in this Congress. As this Republican-led Congress works to gut Planned Parenthood and deprive patients of critical preventative health care, I will do what I can to push back and stand up for women.”
