NARAL Pro-Choice Minnesota Announces 2020 Endorsements 
September 8th, 2020 

Saint Paul, Minnesota 

Today, NARAL Pro-Choice Minnesota announced the endorsement of pro-reproductive freedom candidates running for Minnesota State House and Senate. 

“We are excited to announce the endorsement of these pro-choice champions in Minnesota,” said Maggie Meyer, Executive Director of NARAL Pro-Choice Minnesota. “Reproductive freedom means affordable access to all reproductive health care options, including birth control and abortion care, and institutional support for those who choose to work while pregnant and while raising their families. It is essential to achieving gender equality, and I am confident that these candidates will advocate for reproductive freedom at the capitol.” 

Maggie Meyer added, “Come November, we will win a pro-choice majority in the Minnesota Legislature, and I am excited to see what we can achieve with that majority.”
