GREG ABBOTT: BAD FOR TEXAS WOMEN, BAD FOR TEXAS

AUSTIN, TX – Today Greg Abbott held a press conference and stated that he’s good for Texas women.

Response Statement from Yvonne Gutierrez, Executive Director, Planned Parenthood Texas Votes:

“Greg Abbott has proven himself to be dangerous for Texas women. He has built a career based upon limiting women’s access to preventive, life-saving care, and opposing equal pay for equal work. Most recently Greg Abbott celebrated the Hobby Lobby ruling, supporting a woman’s boss’ ability to severely limit her access to birth control. Greg Abbott is just another insider, who wants to impose his views on Texans and judge all Texas women.

Greg Abbott is bad for Texas women, and bad for Texas. No matter what false talking points he states in a press conference, you can’t win in Texas by working against Texas women. And Greg Abbott works against Texas women. The women of Texas – and all those who care about women – are watching. They are fighting back. And they will vote this November to stop Greg Abbott from becoming Governor.”
