John,
Over the weekend, a FOX News host used EMILYs List's background research to challenge Speaker Mike Johnson on his anti-choice record. Trust me, I’m just as surprised as you are.
[Screenshot from FOX News Sunday that shows EMILYs List's background research on Speaker Johnson. Several of Johnson's extremist views are highlighted, including his support of a national abortion ban with no exceptions, his support of bans for IVF treatments and common forms of birth control, and his past vote against ensuring access to contraception.]

Mike Johnson responded exactly how you'd expect. Instead of confirming or disputing our claims, he feigned ignorance: "I'm not sure what they're talking about, I really don't remember any of those measures."
This guy knows how extreme and unpopular his views are. But his halfhearted half-denials don't really matter — what matters is that this pro-choice community isn't letting him sweep his anti-choice extremism under the rug. We're here to call him out, and to call him out so loudly that even FOX News can't ignore it.
We placed Mike Johnson "On Notice" last week because we're committed to regaining the House majority and taking his gavel next November. That means we're investing in close House races across the country and working hard to make sure American voters know what MAGA Mike and his GOP cronies really believe.
And FOX, if you're listening: we've got plenty more to say about Mike Johnson.
None of this work is possible without your support, John. Donate now to help EMILYs List women FLIP the House and FIRE Speaker Mike Johnson in next year's elections:
