That Minnesota Republican Party email tells at least three different lies that I could find.


1 - In the email, the Minnesota Republican Party tells their people to say that the MN GOP position is that abortion rights are not on the ballot this year. That is a lie. Here is their actual position on abortion, as outlined in their official Minnesota Republican Party Platform adopted in May of this year: that life and full personhood run "from conception to natural death" and to that end they support passing laws, constitutional amendments (state and Federal) or ballot measures banning abortion.

2 - This leads to the next lie: that Doe v. Gomez is "settled" and thus can't be unsettled. Again, their current platform tells us they intend to overturn Roe v. Gomez and by any means they can think of.

3 - They lie about abortion in Minnesota being legal "up to the moment of birth." Abortion in Minnesota is legal after viability only to preserve the mother's life or health.

I hope the DFL jumps on this soon.
