CHICAGO - Today, Governor JB Pritzker and allies announced the formation of Think Big America, a new organization focused on protecting and expanding reproductive rights. Think Big America (TBA) builds on the progress that Governor Pritzker’s administration and its allies have made in Illinois and takes the fight to right wing extremists all across the country. By helping to support initiatives that expand rights and make life better for working families, TBA will get big things done for all Americans. “From attending rallies and marching with my mother as a young boy, to codifying the right to choose into state law before the fall of Roe v Wade, my commitment to protecting and expanding reproductive rights has been lifelong,” said Governor JB Pritzker. “Think Big America is dedicated to ensuring the fundamental right of reproductive choice for individuals everywhere––regardless of their state of residence, religion, race, or socioeconomic status.”
