Anti-abortion protestors gather outside Manchin campaign office
A national organization has spent about $500,000 campaigning for an anti-abortion amendment to the West Virginia constitution, the group announced Monday.
Susan B. Anthony List’s campaign for Amendment 1 has included door-to-door canvassers, radio, TV, digital and direct mail advertisements, spokeswoman Mallory Quigley said during a news conference Monday afternoon.
If Amendment 1 passes, a line will be added to the state constitution that says “nothing in this Constitution secures or protects a right to abortion or requires the funding of abortion.”
