MDP Statement on the Supreme Court Decision Overturning Roe V. Wade
Helena, MT – The Montana Democratic Party releases the following statement in response to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health. This decision overturns Roe v. Wade, which established the right to abortion nearly 50 years ago.
“Today, the US Supreme Court stripped away established rights from Americans. Abortion is still legal in Montana, and will continue to be as long as the Montana Constitution stands. But make no mistake, our state Constitution’s protections for our private health care decisions, including abortion, are under attack. The Montana GOP is coming for our Constitution and our Right to Privacy. They have made it clear that they won’t stop until they control even our most personal, private decisions. The Montana Democratic Party won’t let them.
Montana Democrats will never stop fighting for our Constitution, our right to privacy, our right to make our own decisions with the dignity we deserve.”
