Senator Nina Turner Speaks Out Against Arizona Abortion Ban

In a recent segment of " Run Tell That" On The Rashad Richey Morning Show . Former Ohio State Senator, Senior Fellow at the New School Institute on Race, Power and Political Economy and founder of We Are Somebody , Senator Nina Turner joined the program to discuss the Arizona Supreme Court's ruling on a near-total abortion ban dating back to 1864.

During the segment, Senator Turner highlighted the significance of the Arizona Supreme Court's ruling in the context of the ongoing battle for women's rights. She underscored the repercussions of overturning Roe v. Wade, which has emboldened anti-abortion activists to push for stricter regulations, resulting in archaic laws like the 1864 abortion ban resurfacing in states like Arizona.

Senator Turner emphasized the importance of viewing abortion as a fundamental component of women's healthcare and bodily autonomy. She reframed the debate from a simplistic pro-life versus pro-choice narrative to a more nuanced discussion about economic rights and access to essential healthcare services, particularly for marginalized communities.

The conversation also touched upon the legal avenues available to challenge the Arizona Supreme Court's decision, including potential lawsuits by organizations like the ACLU and the need for legislative efforts to safeguard abortion rights at the federal level. Senator Turner stressed the importance of grassroots activism and advocacy in defending women's reproductive rights at both the state and national levels.

As the segment concluded, Senator Turner encouraged listeners to support her organization, We Are Somebody , which focuses on empowering working-class individuals and advancing social justice causes. Her call to action resonated with audiences, urging them to engage in meaningful advocacy efforts to protect and uphold women's reproductive rights in the face of ongoing legislative threats.
