Gwen Walz speaks along with other women in Michigan against Trump's vision for abortion
The future that former president Donald Trump has planned for women is terrifying, First Lady of Minnesota Gwen Walz told a crowd in Lansing, Michigan on Tuesday.
Even as Trump denies any connection to Project 2025, a controversial Republican playbook for the next presidential administration where reproductive health care would be limited, Walz told the crowd at Lansing Community College voters need only look at what Trump has already done to women.
Walz told the story of Amber Thurman, a 28-year-old mom of a six-year-old boy in Georgia who in 2022 was working as a medical assistant in the hopes of becoming a nurse.
But in August of 2022 Thurman needed medical care after suffering complications from taking abortion pills she received in North Carolina as Georgia had just passed its 6-week abortion ban, according to reporting from ProPublica last week.
