Jennifer Granholm on Abortion

Democratic Governor (MI)

 


Vetoed ban on partial birth abortion

Governor Granholm has vetoed two bills that would have restricted the right to choose. The first bill attempted to ban what promoters refer to as “partial birth abortion.” The second attempted to ban “judge shopping” by juveniles seeking consent for an abortion via judicial bypass.

Endorsed Recommended by EMILY's List of pro-choice women.

Granholm is endorsed by EMILY's list, a pro-choice PAC:

EMILY’s List operates as a donor network, recommending pro-choice Democratic women candidates to its members, who contribute directly to the candidates they choose. In the 1999-2000 election cycle, EMILY’s List members contributed $9.3 million to pro-choice Democratic women candidates. In its 16-year history, EMILY’s List has helped to elect four women governors, eleven women to the United States Senate and 53 women to the U.S. House of Representatives. “Women continue to be the power players in Democratic politics,” said Ellen R. Malcolm, president of EMILY's List. “In 2002, redistricting could result in as many as 75 open seats, creating multiple opportunities to recruit and elect pro-choice Democratic women.”
