Helena, MT – Today marks the two-year anniversary of the Dobbs decision leak, and Tim Sheehy remains committed to attacking Montanans’ reproductive rights. 

“Montanans have been clear that they don’t want politicians getting in between them and their health care. Tim Sheehy has attacked reproductive freedom at every turn, and his support for a national abortion ban is yet another example of how out-of-touch Sheehy is with Montana values,” said Hannah Rehm, senior communications advisor for the Montana Democratic Party.

  • Sheehy is endorsed by Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America (SBA), which has a national abortion ban “litmus test” for any candidates they endorse – Sheehy supports a national abortion ban. Sheehy is the only Republican Senate candidate in a competitive race to receive an endorsement from SBA this cycle. SBA pledged to ship 50 staffers into Montana to campaign for Sheehy and push their anti-choice agenda.

  • Sheehy called abortion “murder,” leaving no doubts about his extreme views. 

  • Sheehy refused to back federal IVF treatment protections, putting vital health care treatments for Montana families in jeopardy.

  • Sheehy refused to say whether he would vote to reinstate the Roe v. Wade decision, which Dobbs overturned. He ignored the question three times. 

Sheehy is a threat to Montanans’ reproductive freedoms.
