As the Supreme Court suggested that they will overturn the Roe v. Wade case and push abortion policy back into the hands of the states, Republicans are already capitalizing on the opportunity to pour funding into anti-choice candidates for the upcoming midterm elections. Reporting has also suggested that Republican Congress members are proposing a federal six-week abortion ban if they retake Congress after the midterms.

"Three national reproductive rights groups on Monday announced plans to spend $150 million campaigning for pro-choice candidates in nine states ahead of the 2022 midterm elections—just as a newly-unveiled Republican anti-choice strategy made it clear how crucial it will be to elect abortion rights advocates in November.
As the Washington Post reported Monday, Republican senators have had extensive discussions about the possibility of proposing a nationwide ban on abortion at six weeks of pregnancy if they retake Congress, as well as new restrictions if Roe v. Wade is overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court.
The prospect of a nationwide six-week ban is "terrifying," Kelley Robinson, executive director of Planned Parenthood Action Fund, told the Post.
"By them saying out loud that their goal is to push a nationwide abortion ban, it makes it clear that we have to elect more pro-reproductive health champions on the national level and in the states," Robinson said."
