Coons enthusiastically voted to confirm anti-abortion hardliner Alex Azar as Secretary of Health and Human Services, and he even vouched for Azar to his Democratic colleagues.
He’s granted lifetime appointments to dozens of anti-women Federalist Society judges, including ones who helped calcify Louisiana’s abortion ban and paved the way for overturning Roe V. Wade.
And he is currently cosponsoring a bill that would automatically cut funding for Medicaid, Medicare, and the ACA subsidies that millions rely on for reproductive health care.
How can Chris Coons say he cares about reproductive justice when he is actively helping Trump take our rights away?
As Senator, I won’t recite empty platitudes on tv while working behind the scenes to strip away our rights. I will do everything in my power to fight for reproductive justice.
Unlike Chris Coons, I will refuse to confirm anti-abortion judges like Elizabeth Branch, Douglas Cole, and Kurt Engelhardt.
Unlike Chris Coons, I will support a full repeal of the Hyde Amendment so that ALL people can seek safe and accessible abortions.
And unlike Chris Coons, I will support universal programs that will provide a dignified standard of living for everyone, such as Medicare for All, universal childcare, and a federal housing guarantee.
We’re in the fight of our lives against Trump’s agenda, and we deserve Senators who will defend our rights — not sell us out behind our backs.
