Washington, DC – Emily Martin, Chief Program Officer at the National Women’s Law Center Action Fund, put out a statement in response to Donald Trump and JD Vance’s transparent attempts to mislead voters about their stance on abortion rights.
“Let’s all give Donald Trump a slow clap for finally figuring out how to read a poll. As his favorability drops in key states, he’s scrambling to reverse this trend by doing what he does best: lying. Specifically, he’s lying about his stance on abortion, and trying to distance himself from the destruction and chaos he created when his Supreme Court overturned Roe—exactly as he promised they would.”
“Donald Trump is the sole reason that we no longer have a federal constitutional right to abortion. He has never cared about protecting abortion rights. If he did, women wouldn’t be dying because they couldn’t get basic care. He’s a pathological liar who will do anything for power.
“We are not fooled. We know that if he gets back into office, he’ll follow the roadmap set out in Project 2025 to ban abortion nationwide.”
