The goal, said Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the Susan B. Anthony List, is to eventually overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court decision that established a woman’s right to abortion.

“We’ll work closely with our local allies on the most ambitious pro-life legislative agenda in history to aggressively challenge, erode and finally overturn Roe v. Wade,” Dannenfelser said at the organization’s annual fundraising dinner Monday night in Washington.

“On top of this, we’ll be protecting our pro-life Senate majority, increasing our ranks in the House, and reelecting Donald Trump.”

The Susan B. Anthony List is one of the most powerful anti-abortion groups in the country, supporting the campaigns of lawmakers opposed to abortion at the federal and state levels.

Dannenfelser herself is a close ally of the Trump administration and served as the chair of the Trump campaign’s 2016 anti-abortion coalition, helping build support for him among voters who oppose abortion.

Going into 2020, Republicans and the Susan B. Anthony List will paint Democrats as extreme on abortion, pointing to recently passed bills in states like Illinois and New York that would ease restrictions on the procedure, Dannenfelser said.

“Going into 2020, abortion extremists are giving us an unlikely gift, are they not?” she said.

“They know that the Roe regime is unwinding and coming to an end. They are overreaching.”

While Democrats have called Republicans extreme for passing abortion bans in states like Alabama and Georgia, Dannenfelser defended the laws as a sign of an “awakening” in the anti-abortion movement.

“State lawmakers acting on their constituents’ will have been emboldened to advance pro-life legislation like never before,” she said, noting that they are some of the “strongest bills ever.”
