Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker announced Wednesday the launch of a pro-abortion advocacy group called Think Big America. The group, which is funded by billionaire Pritzker<\/a>, “the richest elected politician<\/a> in the United States,” will focus mainly on promoting state constitutional amendments in support of abortion \u2014 the abortion industry’s post-Roe strategy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to Politico<\/a>, Think Big America will operate as a 501(c)(4) issue-advocacy organization. It is already supporting ballot measures in Ohio, Nevada, and Arizona that would codify abortion as a state constitutional right.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy commitment to protecting and expanding reproductive rights has been lifelong,\u201d Pritzker said in a statement<\/a>. \u201cThink Big America is dedicated to ensuring the fundamental right of reproductive choice for individuals everywhere \u2014 regardless of their state of residence, religion, race, or socioeconomic status.\u201d<\/p>\n
