    The Spin

    Right narrative

    Ricketts is one of many GOP governors who are doing a stoic job of speaking up for the voiceless. Abortion is a violation of an unborn baby's fundamental right to live and it's the state's responsibility to protect them.

    Left narrative

    Ricketts is allowing his personal, extreme beliefs to get in the way of what's right. This stance infringes on women's rights and risks dragging reproductive rights to draconian levels. Most Americans oppose the overturning of Roe - the people's will must be respected.
