MADISON, Wis. — With the one year anniversary of the Dobbs decision coming up on Saturday, and Wisconsinites still living under a dangerous, near-total abortion ban from 1849, here’s a reminder of the radical, anti-freedom agenda that Tom Tiffany wants to impose on us:
- Wants the federal government to ban abortion – Since arriving in Congress, Tiffany has co-sponsored legislation to ban abortion before many know they are pregnant, and has said he wants the federal government to “step in” and “act” to enact a nationwide abortion ban.
- Threaten access to contraception – Tiffany voted against the Right to Contraception Act, which would guarantee the right to birth control in federal law.
- Supported by groups that want to make abortion “legally unacceptable” – Tiffany has received the support of Wisconsin Right to Life, which wants to make abortion in Wisconsin “legally unacceptable” and was endorsed by National Right to Life, which wants to ban abortions with no exceptions for rape or incest.
“As Wisconsinites continue to have their freedoms restricted by an archaic law from 1849, Tom Tiffany is trying to impose his radical ‘blueprint’ on Wisconsin and the nation to effectively ban abortion. His dangerous agenda is wrong for Wisconsin and exactly the type of extremism that Wisconsinites continue to reject,” said Democratic Party of Wisconsin Rapid Response Director Arik Wolk.
