With the Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v. Wade, abortion rights are officially on the ballot in Pennsylvania.
*Republican State Sen. Doug Mastriano, running for governor, believes life starts at conception.
“We’re gonna have to work our way towards that,” he said during a GOP primary debate.
Mastriano has said he believes in no exceptions. He’s also said he’d end any state funding to Planned Parenthood.
*Democrat Attorney General Josh Shapiro, running for governor, has said he supports current Pennsylvania law and would veto any attempts to further restrict abortion access in the state.
“I believe abortion is healthcare — and access to abortion must be protected here in Pennsylvania,” he said in a statement to The Inquirer.
*Republican Mehmet Oz, running for the US Senate, during a debate in Harrisburg in April, pointed to his anti-abortion stance as a key reason former President Donald Trump endorsed him.
Trump “said that I am pro-life, and I am pro-life,” Oz said. “I’ve been very clear on my position throughout this race.”
*Democrat Lt. Gov. John Fetterman, who is running for the Senate against Dr. Oz, said in April he did not believe in any exceptions to abortion rights.
“That is between a woman and her physician,” Fetterman said at the Carlisle debate, when asked if he believed in any exceptions.
“It’s certainly not between me or any politician. We settled this decades ago, and the fact that these states are trying to repeal it … we have to push back on that.”
He has said he would vote to end the filibuster to codify at the national level the right to abortion. He also said he would only support Supreme Court justices who support Roe v. Wade.

My response would be:
John Fetterman support the murder of children and the exclusion of the father in family decisions.
John Fetterman believes a doctor has more say in the family than the father, which is a disgraceful position and contributes to broken families, abandoned women and irresponsible men.
