Bradenton FL had a guy pull some glory-hog (male, of course) from Texas come and push for "Sanctuary" status for a town that had no clinic where abortions were performed.

They've been bravely raising hell, and not a moment too soon, because now Dobbs decision from the Supreme Ecumenical Catholic Court. So stay strong, keep fighting.
