Planned Parenthood leaders from across the country are meeting in California to discuss how to defend abortion rights.
California Attorney General Rob Bonta, speaking to a group of 25 leaders in a hotel conference room in Sacramento, with another 30 watching online, said abortion advocates could channel what he called the “ruthless energy” of anti-abortion advocates — “but not as a way to hurt people.”“Anti-freedom states have been playing the long game. They have successfully led a ruthless, coordinated siege on reproductive freedom," Bonta said."It's time that we play that game as well.
Even if Democrats retain control of the U.S. Senate, they likely still would not have enough votes to stop Republicans from blocking abortion legislation. Democrats in the House have already voted to pass a bill that would make abortion legal nationwide, but they have been unable to get the bill past an evenly divided Senate.“We can only get so far through our inside maneuverings.
Abortion-rights leaders felt emboldened by California's swift success in passing new abortion protections, the result of more than a year of careful planning. In the fall of 2021, Gov. Gavin Newsom formed the “Future of Abortion Council,” bringing together more than 40 state officials and abortion-rights groups to analyze the state's abortion laws., which became the foundation for a package of 15 bills that passed the Legislature this year.
