Lindemann ’29: Crisis pregnancy centers are a threat Rhode Island can’t ignore

The Ocean State helped buoy the blue wave that swept the nation on Nov. 3. The Democratic nominee for governor, Helena Foulkes, won her race by over 100,000 votes.

Especially when it comes to pro-choice legislation, Rhode Island is extremely liberal. In 2019, the state codified the protections of Roe v. Wade into state law, and in 2024, we established legal protections for clinicians and prohibited legal action targeting legally provided health care.
