Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers and Democratic lawmakers in the state legislature introduced a bill earlier this week that would restore abortion rights in Wisconsin. The state reverted to a draconian anti-abortion law from 1849 after Roe was dismantled.
A majority said they opposed the action by the Supreme Court, while just over a third of residents in the state said they were in favor of it.
Evers recognized that Republicans would oppose the bill, in spite of the fact that most Wisconsinites would likely back the Democrats’ proposal.. “Republicans have their bill; the Democrats have their bill. The people of Wisconsin should be able to hear a debate about this issue. Not silence.”is widely read among people with lower incomes and among young people who are mired in debt.
