Bill Galvin Challenger Targets Pro-Life Lobbyists In Massachusetts Secretary of State’s Race

A left-wing challenger to Bill Galvin says she'd "activate" all aspects of the Massachusetts Secretary of State's office to promote abortion.

"Some have asked, what does the secretary of state have to do with abortion rights? And isn't this an office that's just about administering elections?" Tanisha Sullivan said during a press conference Thursday, August 11, according to State House News Service. "… This office has significant powers and authority when it comes to regulating corporations and securities, the disclosure of public records, and those who lobby our state government, among others. And we need to activate all of those divisions today, with the power that exists within those divisions today, to ensure that we are not only protecting access to abortion care but that we are protecting reproductive justice and freedom."
