Garrity called the Commonwealth Court’s ruling that defended Pennsylvanians’ right to reproductive care “immoral” — the latest example of Garrity’s extreme record of opposing reproductive freedom in our Commonwealth
PENNSYLVANIA — Yesterday, Stacy Garrity strongly criticized the Commonwealth Court’s ruling that Pennsylvania’s constitution “guarantees a right to abortion” — yet another example of Garrity proving she “has long opposed abortion” and cannot be trusted to protect reproductive freedom in our Commonwealth. Stacy Garrity’s own words make it clear: the right to reproductive care is on the ballot this November.
From Garrity saying that her “100% pro-life” position on abortion has “never changed” and that protecting reproductive care in Pennsylvania is “really disgusting,” to Garrity selling anti-abortion merchandise for years and calling for action to restrict abortion access in Pennsylvania after loudly celebrating the fall of Roe v. Wade — Pennsylvanians are seeing that Garrity’s extreme opposition to reproductive freedom is wrong for our Commonwealth.
What Pennsylvanians are reading about Garrity strongly opposing reproductive freedom:
- Associated Press: “The likely Republican nominee to challenge Shapiro in the fall general election, state Treasurer Stacy Garrity, said in a statement that the court’s decision ‘to force our tax dollars to pay for abortions is not only misguided, it is immoral.’”
- The Philadelphia Inquirer: “In the evening, Treasurer Stacy Garrity, a Republican who is challenging Shapiro for his seat as governor, posted on X that the court’s ruling ‘wasn’t only misguided, it is immoral.’”
- ABC27: “Garrity has long opposed abortion, describing herself as a pro-life candidate when running for treasurer. She also sold ‘Baby Lives Matter’ hats and ‘Defund Planned Parenthood’ shirts on her campaign website, as well as ‘Life Won’ stickers after the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, eliminating the Constitutional right to abortion.”
- Pennsylvania Capital-Star: “Gov. Josh Shapiro, who is seeking reelection this year, announced following the Supreme Court’s ruling that DHS would no longer defend the abortion coverage exclusion […] State Treasurer Stacy Garrity, the presumptive Republican nominee for governor, responded strongly to the ruling in a series of X posts.”
- PoliticsPA: “Probable Republican candidate for governor Stacy Garrity called the decision ‘immoral.’”
