Today Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America’s Candidate Fund announced its endorsement of Mississippi Attorney General Lynn Fitch for re-election.

As attorney general of Mississippi, Fitch led the legal team that successfully defended a state law limiting abortion at 15 weeks in the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization U.S. Supreme Court case. The case resulted in the overturning of Roe v. Wade, restoring the right of the people and their elected leaders to protect unborn children and their mothers in the law. Just under a year later, 25 states now have laws protecting life between conception and 12 weeks, with the potential to impact 200,000 lives a year.

“Attorney General Lynn Fitch is a pro-life hero whose courageous leadership was instrumental in the historic Dobbs victory. We’re proud to have stood together every step of the way, and our work is not finished,” said Hon. Marilyn Musgrave, SBA Pro-Life America’s vice president of government affairs. “In this new phase of the pro-life battle, General Fitch continues to blaze new trails to empower women and promote life – including spearheading initiatives to support more than two dozen pregnancy centers across Mississippi in providing hope and compassionate alternatives to abortion. We enthusiastically support Lynn’s re-election and look forward to many more opportunities to save babies and serve families with her.”

Most recently Fitch and 22 more pro-life state attorneys general filed an amicus brief challenging the Biden Food and Drug Administration’s decision to allow mail-order distribution of dangerous abortion drugs.

SBA Pro-Life America’s Candidate Fund endorsed Fitch in her first race for attorney general in 2019. She is the first woman to hold the position. Previously she served two terms as state treasurer. She has received numerous awards and honors and serves on the boards of several charitable organizations.
