Planned Parenthood Advocacy Fund of Massachusetts Endorses Mayor Michelle Wu for Reelection

Boston, August 13 – Today, Planned Parenthood Advocacy Fund (PPAF) of Massachusetts, the advocacy arm of Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts (PPLM), announced that it has endorsed Mayor Michelle Wu for reelection as Mayor of Boston. 

 “Planned Parenthood is on the frontlines of ensuring Bostonians have access to affordable, dignified, life-saving healthcare,” said Mayor Wu. “The Trump administration continues to attack healthcare providers and advocates, but in Boston we stand with organizations like Planned Parenthood, which are so vital to the health and safety of everyone in our communities. I was proud to receive PPAF’s endorsement during my first run for Mayor in 2021, and I’m grateful and proud to receive their endorsement of my reelection campaign.”

“As we work to fortify reproductive freedom in Massachusetts against increasing federal attacks, we need elected leaders at every level of government who will fight for their constituents’ right to bodily autonomy and access to quality, affordable sexual and reproductive health care,” said Dominique Lee, President of the Planned Parenthood Advocacy Fund of Massachusetts. “Mayor Wu is no stranger to this fight - she has infused her deep personal commitment to reproductive freedom in her work throughout her entire career. PPAF is proud to endorse Michelle Wu for re-election for Mayor of Boston."

PPLM is the largest freestanding reproductive health care provider and advocate in the Commonwealth, providing sexual and reproductive health care to more than 30,000 patients a year at its four health centers across the state and via telehealth. PPLM provides birth control, testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections, lifesaving cancer screenings, abortion care, gender-affirming hormone therapy, and other critical health services. Every Massachusetts resident can turn to PPLM for compassionate, nonjudgmental care – no matter their race, sexual orientation, gender identity, insurance status, or immigration status.
