Press Release

Location: Phoenix, Arizona

Today, Arizona Secretary of State and gubernatorial candidate Katie Hobbs released the following statement condemning the U.S. Supreme Court's reported decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, as reported by Politico:

"This expected ruling marks a historic setback in the fight for our fundamental rights across the country," said Hobbs. "As a social worker, I saw firsthand the devastating effects that a dangerous, traumatizing, or unplanned pregnancy has on a woman and her family. This decision paves the way for even more extreme anti-abortion legislation than the 15-week ban signed into law by Governor Ducey last month. The Supreme Court may have turned its back on women, but I never will."
