PRO-LIFERS DROP BANNER AGAINST PROPOSAL 3 AT U OF M VS. STATE FOOTBALL GAME
On Saturday, days before the Michigan election, activists from the Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising displayed a large banner that read "NO PROP 3" during the infamous football game between the University of Michigan and Michigan State University at Michigan Stadium. This action was in response to the extreme and dangerous nature of the constitutional amendment that Michigan will be voting on next Tuesday.

If passed, this amendment would alter the Michigan state constitution to expand abortion to all 9 months of pregnancy, allow non-doctors to perform abortions, remove parental consent laws, and remove 25 health and safety standards from abortion businesses, forever.
Terrisa Bukovinac, founder and executive director of PAAU stated, “My home state, Michigan, is at risk of becoming an extremist late-term abortion destination. Ensuring the failure of Prop 3 is essential to limiting the exploitive power of the Abortion Industrial Complex, and informing the voters of Michigan is the key. The unborn children conceived in less than perfect circumstances are at risk of being killed in greater numbers than ever before and it is the responsibility of every Michigander of goodwill to protect them by voting NO on Prop 3”.
Caroline Taylor Smith, Public Relations director for PAAU added, “Abortion extremism has no place in Michigan. I am a progressive anti-abortion feminist and a long term resident of Michigan, and the fact that the abortion industry is targeting my state in this way is disgusting. I’ve talked to hundreds of voters about this topic, and it is clear: Michigan doesn’t want Proposal 3, and it will be defeated.”
