An attention-getting new billboard<\/a> on I-25 between Albuquerque and Santa Fe, New Mexico, recently tested a new strategy of pro-abortion outreach. The billboard, clearly meant to shock, reads, “Rape is about power and control. So are abortion bans.” Another billboard, placed on the side of a truck which circled New Mexico’s Capitol building as well as in downtown Santa Fe last week bore the messages, “Voted against abortion access? We didn’t forget,” and “Keep abortion safe and legal.” ProgressNow New Mexico, a group fighting to keep abortion legal in the state, is the group behind the billboards.<\/p>\n

Marianna Anaya, the director of communications for the organization,\u00a0stated<\/a>, “2020 will be a decisive year for the future of abortion access, and it\u2019s critical that we defeat the agenda of anti-abortion groups and lawmakers and expose them for what they are \u2014 extreme, violent and cruel.” Video below from KRQE<\/a>:<\/p>\n
