IVF DR. PAMELA PUGH for MICHIGAN! PUBLIC HEALTH EXPERT

 



Pamela Pugh for Congress

Hi, this is Dr. Pamela Pugh. As a public health expert and someone who has struggled with infertility challenges of my own, I do feel qualified to speak up and speak out on one of the hot-button issues in our political discourse right now – access to IVF.

This will be a bit of a longer email, but I think it's important to share my story with you. 

As someone who doesn’t have children – and not by choice, it is difficult and raw for me to share my challenges with infertility, but it is a path that I have walked down in my life. While I have been an aunt, godmother, a bonus parent, and a foster parent instead of pursuing IVF, it is often the last option families here in Mid-Michigan and around the country have to pursue to have children when facing infertility challenges. 

Right now, this vital medical care is at risk: Since Republicans in the state of Alabama effectively banned IVF last month, we have seen their Republican allies in Congress refuse to join with Democrats to enshrine federal protections for IVF. Here in our “toss-up” race in Michigan’s 8th District, there’s no doubt that my future Republican opponent in the general election will support an IVF ban. 

So in my estimation, we face two potential futures in November with regard to reproductive rights: 

1. If Democrats lose this district, we will likely lose the House, and potentially also the Senate and the Presidency in November. If that happens we would certainly face a federal IVF and abortion ban. 

2. If I'm elected to the U.S. Congress and we win this toss-up district for Democrats, we will likely win back the House, and I will fight every single day to protect reproductive health care and rights – including IVF access – for millions of American families who have struggled with infertility challenges as I have. 

Let’s make sure we all do everything we can in 2024 to make the 2nd version of this potential future a reality. We have to fight. We owe it to women, families, and people struggling with infertility everywhere. 

If you’re in this fight with me to win this district, hold the House for Democrats, and protect IVF, please pitch in a donation of $1, $20.24, or whatever you can to help us mobilize and organize in every corner of my critical swing district (one of only 21 “toss-up” districts in the entire country).

Thank you for standing with me and fighting for what is right,

– Dr. Pamela Pugh


I’m Dr. Pamela Pugh, and I’m a Saginaw native running for Congress in Michigan's 8th District. I've spent my career fighting to improve the lives of Michigan residents through public health initiatives, and as the Chief Public Health Advisor for Flint I played a pivotal role in standing alongside Flint residents during the water crisis. As a public servant, I currently serve as the President of the Michigan State Board of Education, a statewide elected position. I believe in standing up for the people and fighting for our democracy, our children, and our future.

I've lived in Michigan's 8th District for my entire life and it will be the honor of a lifetime to represent my community in the House of Representatives. I'm relying on grassroots contributions to fuel my campaign to victory — so please chip in what you can right now!

Our email list is an important tool for us to reach Democrats and activists in Michigan and around the country.
