Lanhee Chen Statement on US Supreme Court Decision in Dobbs
“As Controller, I will never restrict nor interfere with a woman’s ability to get an abortion or access to abortion services. In fact, the Controller can neither lawfully impose such restrictions nor engage in such interference. Even if I did have the power to restrict access to abortions or abortion services, I would not. California voters have spoken clearly on this issue. And while my opponent would rather talk about anything other than the dysfunction and mismanagement in Sacramento, my singular focus as Controller will be on standing up for taxpayers and bringing accountability and fiscal transparency back to California.”
