Chris Lugo on Abortion

Green challenger

Women's right to privacy is fundamental to our society

Q: Do you support abortion as a woman's right?

A: Strongly Support. A woman's right to the autonomy of her body and right to privacy is fundamental to our society and to women's progress. Women will not be reassigned to second class citizens in this country and I will work to do everything in my power to keep abortion safe and legal for all women, not just those in 'safe states' where abortion would be kept legal.
