Monroe County · ~19,000 residents
Immediate, total abolition — no exceptions
Monroe is the seat of Monroe County — a Lake Erie shore city where the River Raisin meets the lake. Historic site of the War of 1812 River Raisin battles (now a national park). Politically it has trended Republican in recent cycles despite its historically Democratic union heritage.
The Catholic church network — St. Mary's, St. John the Baptist, and the IHM Sisters of Charity motherhouse — has been a foundational institution in Monroe since the 1820s. IHM teaching on abortion has been consistent for two centuries: it is intrinsically evil. Abolition is that teaching brought into civil law.
We are not currently aware of an abortion facility operating inside Monroe city limits.

Michigan reported 28,491 induced abortions statewide in 2023 — a documented rise since the 2022 Reproductive Freedom for All amendment. The number above counts only Michigan residents of Monroe County; it does not include out-of-state travelers or self-managed abortions at home.

Prop 3 vote · Monroe County · 2022
A majority of Monroe County voters rejected Proposal 22-3 — the Reproductive Freedom for All amendment. Statewide it passed 56.7% to 43.3%, but Monroe County did not go along. That local majority is the moral and political foundation for the equal-protection legislation abolitionists ask your representatives to sponsor.
