    . Joins Coalition in Continued Fight to Protect Family Planning Funding ⬇️

    "I have been and will always be committed to ensuring that the women of Michigan receive the healthcare services they need," Nessel said. "The U.S. District Court was right to reject the plaintiff states' request for a preliminary injunction. Any state that opposes the new Title X rule does not have the bests interests of the people of that state in mind. I'm proud to join my colleagues in supporting the current administration's efforts to restore funding to family planning providers."

    ICYMI: issued the following statement Thursday in response to two lawsuits filed challenging Michigan's 1931 abortion statute: Full statement:

    "Let me be very clear, I will not use the resources of my office to defend Michigan's 1931 statute criminalizing abortion. As elected prosecutors and law enforcement officials, we have the opportunity to lead and to offer peace of mind to women and health-care professionals who might otherwise be placed in the untenable position of choosing between the exercise of personal health-care choices and the threat of criminal prosecution. "Abortion care is an essential component of women's health care. As this state's top law enforcement officer, I have never wavered in my stance on this issue, and I will not prosecute women or their doctors for a personal medical decision."
