Washington, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) released the following statement condemning Democrats for prioritizing their extreme abortion policy agenda:
“As Russian aggression continues to fuel a war abroad, Senate Democrats are choosing to prioritize extremist policies to make abortion access easier than ever. Not only is this prioritization grossly flawed, but this legislation reveals just how far Democrats are willing to go to force their radical views on the American people regardless of the fact that a majority support certain restrictions on abortion, many of which would be prohibited under this bill.
“The Democrats’ bill priority this week goes well beyond codifying Roe v. Wade to actually expand abortion access by nullifying duly enacted state laws, such as parental notification and consent laws for minors, which the Supreme Court has found to be constitutional, and by making it easier to obtain an abortion at any point in pregnancy. Fortunately, Democrats’ latest effort to radicalize their base will fail.”
