SOUND THE ALARM: RNC Edition Part 4

July 18, 2024

In case you missed it, Trump and the Republicans are hiding their toxic agenda on abortion at the Republican National Convention. But his record speaks for itself. Donald Trump and JD Vance can try to lie to voters, but EMILYs List will be sharing their anti-choice extremist records now through Election Day. 

Christina Reynolds, senior vice president at EMILYs List, said the following: 

“Trump is bad for America. Period. He can try to hide his extremist record from voters but they won’t be fooled. Years and years of records show Trump’s agenda clearly: He will eliminate reproductive freedom in this country if elected. His leadership was detrimental to women during the first presidency and he will only go further if given another opportunity. The stakes couldn’t be higher.”Trump’s Anti-Choice Record
