The group hopes to get congressional candidate and state Assemblyman Mike Lawler to speak out on his position when it comes to reproductive rights.
In a statement to News 12, Assemblyman Lawler says "Abortion isn't going anywhere in New York. It's been legal in this state since 1970 — three years before Roe v. Wade — and an even more permissive abortion law was controversially passed here in 2019.Like it or not, this is a non-issue in this state, and anyone suggesting otherwise is simply playing politics."
Lawler is going up against Democrat Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney.
