Yeah, I mean, as you said, people in Michigan are going to have their voice heard on proposal three. This is a radical late term taxpayer funded with no parental consent abortion proposal that's on the ballot. It is something that would be placed into our state constitution, would nullify every other statute regarding abortion under the Michigan law. Right now it's very radical. It's embraced by my opponent. I oppose it. Ultimately, after the Supreme Court decision, this is going to be principally decided by the states and that's where, you know, people will have their voice heard at the ballot this November.
