Today, Governor Evers and Attorney General Josh Kaul filed suit in Dane County Circuit Court to repeal Wisconsin statute 940.04, which protects the life of the preborn. Their court filing argues that “later-enacted laws impliedly repeal earlier-enacted laws.” Rep. Allen released the following statement in response:

“Every Wisconsin law in regards to abortion is about protecting preborn life. This is true for both the older and newer laws. The only difference is that one was written before Roe v. Wade, and the others were written afterwards. To seek to abolish the protection of equal right to life for the preborn through a procedural move goes against the legislative intent of every single abortion law passed in Wisconsin. Evers and Kaul continue to show their blatant disregard for life.”
