2022 MA Governor's race: on Abortion

Maura Healey: I'm always going to stand up for abortion access

Healey led a coalition of 24 attorneys general to file an amicus brief to challenge the 15-week abortion ban that sprung up in Mississippi. Healey also took to Twitter after the Mississippi abortion case was heard in court, calling the hearing a "dangerous day at SCOTUS."

"Roe is the law of the land and must remain that way," Healey wrote. "No matter what the Court rules, I'm always going to stand up for abortion access."
