Democratic AGs are on Frontlines of Defending Reproductive Rights

Washington, DC — On what would’ve been the 51st anniversary of the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade, the Democratic Attorneys General Association (DAGA) released the following statement.

Statement from DAGA Co-Chairs Delaware AG Kathy Jennings and Nevada AG Aaron Ford:

“Today, on what would’ve marked the 51st anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision, Democratic Attorneys General remain committed to protecting reproductive freedom. As Democratic AGs, we are proud to be on the frontlines of the fight to protect and expand abortion access, working with President Biden and Vice President Harris to do everything in our power and using every legal tool we have to defend reproductive rights.

“As Donald Trump and MAGA extremists, including Republican AGs, seek to prosecute doctors, cut access to abortion medication, and ban abortion nationwide, we are also reminded of the stakes of this year’s election. We must continue to stand up to any Republican extremist who threatens abortion access and seeks to strip Americans of their fundamental rights.”
