in the lead up to Election Day. The organizations — also known as crisis pregnancy centers — have sought to remove those measures from state ballots and distributed materials with misleading talking points.
Anti-abortion centers in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New York and South Dakota — all states with abortion rights ballot measures this election — have encouraged people to vote against their states’ proposals. Some have shared inflammatory and often misleading posts on their social media pages and distributed literature opposing the measures. Several receive financial support from state grants, according to their 990 tax documents.
“We are so actively involved, my schedule is crazy,” said Lori North, the head of the center, said on the phone. North said she was unable to make time for an interview in part because of the heavy demands of campaigning against Amendment 4. “We’re doing as much as we can, given our day-to-day tasks,” she said. “Which isn’t much — it’s mostly information dissemination.”
“Pregnancy centers have tried to stay out of the political arena and I completely understand that, but these pro-abortion activists are coming for you, and you can’t hide from it, and you can’t ignore it,” South Dakota state Rep. Jon Hansen said at the workshop, per a video recording. Hansen did not respond to a request for an interview.
