Earlier this year Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who was re-elected last November, said that her pro-abortion policies are “just good economics.”

Not to be outdone, Democrat State Senator Dayna Polehanki piggybacked on California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s tweet to explain what makes her state a great place to live:

Wow, how… inspiring.

So far Whitmer and the Michigan Democrats (along with Gavin Newsom) have only managed to chase people away from their respective states. Many of those leaving the state have gone to Florida and Texas:

Texas is the No. 1 growth state for the second consecutive year and the fifth time since 2016. Florida, which ranks second, has been a top-three growth state seven years in a row.

South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Arizona, Georgia, Ohio and Idaho round out the top 10 growth states. Virginia and Alabama are the biggest risers, climbing 26 spots from their respective 2021 rankings. New York, Massachusetts, Michigan, Illinois and California are the bottom five states for growth in 2022.

It doesn’t appear that the Michigan Democrats’ strategy to lure more people to the state by making it easier to kill the unborn is working.

Florida and Texas will be the ultimate winners here:

Imagine basing your top “great place to live” priority on the state’s baby-killing policies.

Unreal.
