Destigmatizing abortion is a shared goal for @lizzwinstead and Amy Hagstrom Miller, both Minnesota natives who have risen to the front ranks of the legal abortion movement. Frank talk around a once-taboo topic reflects a new strategy for Democrats in an election where they hope to move votes over concern for dwindling access to abortion.

“Until fairly recently, the only acceptable way to talk about abortion in the public culture was through a framework of regret,” Hagstrom Miller said. “Now we’re seeing more aspirational stories: ‘Because of abortion, I was able to do X.’”

The abortion debate was upended two years ago when the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. Since then, 14 states have banned the procedure. Yet public support for legal abortion has inched upward; nearly 2 in 3 Americans believe abortion should be legal in all or most cases. Democrats see abortion as a winning electoral issue, with voters repeatedly indicating support for abortion rights and with conservative states like Kansas, Kentucky and Ohio explicitly voting for abortion rights since the Dobbs decision.
