East Lansing's abolitionist inheritance

East Lansing is Michigan State University's home — a college town whose politics are shaped by the university's 50,000-student population and its progressive Big Ten-flagship faculty. The city's dominant political culture runs deep-Democratic, but its confessional-Christian congregations (PCA, LCMS, Catholic) hold the historic pro-life teaching without compromise.

East Lansing is exactly the audience the abolitionist argument was built to reach — university-educated professionals who take theology seriously and hear the biblical case for the personhood of the preborn as a substantive argument rather than a slogan.

Prop 3 vote · Ingham County · 2022

69.7%Yes
30.3%No

A majority of Ingham County voters approved Proposal 22-3, the Reproductive Freedom for All amendment. Statewide, it passed 56.7% to 43.3%. A majority vote does not settle whether preborn image-bearers deserve equal protection under the law — that is a moral question the ballot cannot answer, and it is exactly the question the abolition movement asks Michigan to reopen.
