Governor Lourdes A. Leon Guerrero, a registered nurse, has forcefully advocated for reproductive rights in Guam. Governor Leon Guerrero has expanded access to reproductive health care services, including contraception and prenatal care, and has supported education initiatives on reproductive health, contraception, and family planning.
After Dobbs, the Guam Legislature introduced and passed 291-36, which would have banned all abortions after six weeks. Governor Leon Guerrero vetoed this bill and successfully campaigned and defended against a potential legislative override of her veto.
Reproductive Freedom is a fundamental human right that we must protect. It's about ensuring that women have the ability to control their own bodies, their own destinies, and their own futures. By championing reproductive rights, we empower women to make the best decisions for themselves and their families, ultimately strengthening our communities.
