No Choice is NOT PRO-LIFE
North Carolina Local Papers: Republicans Are to Blame for SCOTUS Decision
In the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, local papers’ coverage highlights both the stakes of the 2022 election and how the decision is a direct result of Republicans’ decades-long, unrelenting war on abortion rights.
While abortion is still legal in North Carolina, Governor Cooper’s veto and Democratic candidates are the last line of defense as in-state Republicans work to enact their unpopular, anti-choice MAGA agenda of restricting reproductive rights.
Here’s what local papers in North Carolina are saying:
Smokey Mountain News: A modest proposal to eliminate abortions
Transylvania Times: Cooper signs executive order protecting abortion access
Citizen Times: Opinion: Individual freedom to make decisions cherished; advantages others don't have
Charlotte Observer: Opinion: Save it, North Carolina Republicans. Banning abortion isn’t protecting lives
Charlotte Observer: ‘Loudly and clearly.’ How Supreme Court’s abortion ruling could affect NC Senate race
News & Observer: Letters to the Editor: Abortion ruling turns women like me into second-class citizens
WRAL: Editorial: Now it’s voters turn on the status of abortion
Make no mistake: The Republican Party will not stop at overturning Roe v. Wade.
Electing Democratic candidates will be the last line of defense as Republicans try to enact their unpopular, anti-choice MAGA agenda of outlawing abortion and threatening doctors with prison time.
