The abortion battles underway in America today in a post-Roe v. Wade landscape have brought a modern American political reality into sharper focus. Big-money progressives are maximizing a new favorite approach to utilize their financial heft to enact law: the state referendum process.

Pritzker is using that money pile to promote pro-abortion referendums in eight states in 2024, none of which he happens to reside in.
