Anti-abortion group pushes back after DeSantis faulted movement for Ohio defeat

A leading anti-abortion group is pushing back a day after Gov. Ron DeSantis accused the movement of getting caught “flat-footed” in the latest electoral fight over access to the procedure.

Responding to the Florida governor’s remarks at Wednesday’s presidential debate, Kelsey Pritchard, director of state public affairs for Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, told CNN that DeSantis “may not be aware of how hard the pro-life community fought in Ohio,” where voters on Tuesday approved a ballot initiative to enshrine abortion access into the state constitution.
