OFFICIAL VOTER GUIDE 2022

THE 2022 MIDTERMS HAVE ARRIVED.

Are there races and candidates on the ballot that affect the Majority Rules?

Many candidates support the Majority Rules — our values based agenda that when realized will mean women are supported in the United States. Scroll down to learn what 2022 candidates and races advocate for abortion access, safe and fair elections, and believe in our values.

đźš— MICHIGAN

 

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL RACE: Dana Nessel is single-handedly protecting women’s freedom to access abortion by blocking an abortion ban from 1931.

THE GOVERNOR’S RACE: Governor Gretchen Whitmer has promised to use every tool in her toolbox to protect women, nurses, and doctors in Michigan.

THE SECRETARY OF STATE: Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s top priority is ensuring free and fair, transparent and secure elections for everyone in the state of Michigan.

đź”” PENNSYLVANIA

 

SENATE RACE: John Fetterman has promised to enshrine access to safe and legal abortion into federal law by passing the Women’s Health Protection Act, as well as fight to repeal the Hyde Amendment.

GOVERNOR’S RACE: Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro has said he will be the last line of defense for Pennsylvanians — he will veto any bill that would restrict abortion rights, and he will expand access to reproductive care.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY: If anti-abortion legislators take over the State Senate, they could vote to override the Governor’s veto in order to pass an abortion ban in the state.
