Immediate, total abolition — no exceptions
Traverse City is Michigan's cherry capital and the largest city in northwest Lower Michigan — Interlochen, the National Cherry Festival, and the Grand Traverse Bay wine country. Its economy is tourism, agriculture, and a growing tech scene; its politics have trended purple in recent cycles.
The Catholic and evangelical Protestant church network in Traverse City is strong; the confessional Reformed presence is smaller than downstate but growing. The abolitionist argument in a city that has trended purple politically has a real audience.
We are not currently aware of an abortion facility operating inside Traverse City city limits.
