Katy Perry previously supported Rick Caruso for Los Angeles mayor. According to reports, he previously provided financial support for politicians and causes opposed to abortion.
Following the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, Caruso released a statement.
"I am heartbroken and outraged by the decision of the Supreme Court," the 63-year-old tweeted."It’s wrong, plain and simple, and makes millions of women unsafe and unequal under the law. I want every woman in Los Angeles to know, I will do all I can to ensure women’s reproductive rights are protected. I stand with you and my heart breaks with you on this devastating day.
"If it becomes final, the justices in the majority will have taken away the rights of millions of people in this country and put lives in jeopardy," he tweeted at the time. My position has always been clear. Like most, I support a woman's right to choose and if made final, this will hurt many of our fellow Americans. As a father who is pro-choice, I’m proud to live in a city and state where women’s reproductive rights are respected and protected.
In 2007, Los Angeles magazine published a profile that said Caruso"opposes abortion in most cases but would support some stem cell research."
