Reproductive Freedom for All Responds to Trump Choosing Sen. J. D. Vance as Pick for Vice President <\/p>\n
Washington, DC Today, Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump, officially announced Republican Ohio Senator, J. D. Vance, as his running mate for his 2024 presidential run. <\/p>\n
Reproductive Freedom for All President and CEO Mini Timmaraju released the following statement in response: <\/p>\n
Donald Trump selecting J. D. Vance as his pick for vice president provides even more evidence that a Trump administration will stop at nothing to ban all abortion. Make no mistake, Trump picked him because of not in spite of his anti-abortion bonafides. A Trump-Vance administration will be the most dangerous administration for abortion and reproductive freedom in this countrys history. We must re-elect President Biden and Vice President Harris to not only restore our rights but to safeguard our democracy. <\/p>\n
Vance has worked in lockstep with extremist Republicans in the Senate to undermine reproductive freedomrefusing to back down from the dangerous abortion bans and restrictions his party has engineered. <\/p>\n
A second Trump presidency would give Donald Trump another opportunity to do untold damage to our fundamental rights. Anti-abortion groupswho teamed up with Trump during his last administration to lay the groundwork to overturn Roe and decimate reproductive freedomhave partnered with at least 140 former Trump administration officials to create a lengthy agenda that he could begin launching on Day One of his administration. Those plans offer Trump a laundry list of options to attack abortion rights and access, including reviving the domestic gag rule, deploying the Federal Trade Commission to penalize and prosecute virtual clinics that prescribe abortion pills to people in states with bans, attempting to wilfully misinterpret and misuse the antiquated Comstock Act to block access to both abortion pills and medical equipment used for abortion services, and rescinding all of the policies the Biden-Harris administration enacted that expanded abortion access. <\/p>\n
