After last night's WMUR debate in New Hampshire's First Congressional District, Russell Prescott made it clear once again that he would join extreme party bosses to rip away Granite State women's reproductive rights.
Prescott's extreme 20-year anti-choice record tells you everything you need to know:
As a State Senator, Prescott repeatedly voted to undermine a woman's right to choose.
In 2015, he voted against a bill to require employers to disclose to employees whether their insurance covered contraception.
Prescott has also used rhetoric aligned with D.C. politicians pushing for a nationwide abortion ban without any exceptions, and praised the disastrous overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Prescott has touted an endorsement from anti-choice Congresswoman Kat Cammack and floated her as a Vice Presidential candidate for Trump.
Prescott also endorsed the leader of the GOP's crusade against women's reproductive freedoms, Donald Trump, in addition to JD Vance, who said he "certainly would like abortion to be illegal nationally."
Meanwhile, Chris Pappas has always fought to protect women's reproductive freedoms, including co-sponsoring the Women's Health Protection Act and the Protecting Reproductive Freedom Act, and will continue to do so when re-elected.
DCCC Spokesperson Ellie Dougherty:
"Russell Prescott is a threat to Granite Staters' freedoms and would join with far-right party bosses to restrict women's reproductive rights. New Hampshire voters are overwhelmingly pro-choice and will reject Prescott's extremism."
