Women’s Reproductive Rights Panel

 Local activist group Northern Door Activism has invited three pro-choice candidates and a local expert, obstetrician/gynecologist Dr. Kristin Lyerly, to participate in a panel discussion on the current state of women’s reproductive rights and abortion-care access in Wisconsin. 

Candidate participants include lieutenant governor candidate Sara Rodriguez, state Senate candidate Andrea Gage-Michaels and Wisconsin Assembly candidate Roberta Thelen. Each candidate in attendance will be on Door County ballots Nov. 8, running against anti-abortion incumbents or candidates.

The event will take place Sept. 28 at Peach Barn Farmhouse & Brewery, 2450 S. Bay Shore Dr. in Sister Bay. The panel discussion will begin at 5:30 pm, followed by a candidate Q&A and reception, where donations are welcomed. Guests of all ages are invited to attend anytime between 5 pm and 8 pm to enjoy the provided food and refreshments. Candidate yard signs and additional informational materials will also be available. Learn more about Northern Door Activism and how to participate in local initiatives by joining the organization’s email list.
