On Wednesday, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed three bills, repealing the state’s 92-year-old anti-abortion ban—a law prohibiting abortions without exceptions for rape, incest or health.

Ultimately,, a ballot measure that would repeal the ban and add an amendment to the state constitution explicitly establishing the right to abortion, as well as a broad range of other reproductive healthcare, including prenatal care, childbirth, postpartum care, contraception, sterilization, miscarriage management and infertility.
“So to all the women and girls and our allies in states that don’t value you or your rights, maybe you should come to Michigan.” Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed legislation on Wednesday repealing a ban from 1931 that made it a crime to assist in an abortion.

Wednesday’s signing marked another victory for abortion rights supporters after voters in Wisconsin elected a Democratic-backed Milwaukee judge Tuesday to the state’s Supreme Court, ensuring liberals will take over majority control of the court with the fate of the state’s abortion ban on the line.
