GA-HD53: Democrats aim to make Georgia's six-week abortion ban a wedge issue in suburban legislative race

One of the most competitive legislative races in Georgia is turning into a referendum on access to reproductive rights.

Democrat Susie Greenberg is challenging Republican state Rep. Deborah Silcox in the suburban Atlanta district that Democrats have made one of their top targets this year. Both women are attorneys who live in Sandy Springs.

Greenberg, who is a former board member of Planned Parenthood Southeast, received a boost for her election bid Saturday when the Harris-Walz presidential campaign held a canvassing kick-off event for her at the campaign’s headquarters three days before the final day of voting.

“We desperately need Susie in our state Legislature,” U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff, who is a Democrat, said to a packed room.
