“She is the only candidate for governor that we trust to protect women’s health care”
[Portland, OR] – The Tina for Oregon campaign released a new TV ad featuring Planned Parenthood PAC of Oregon’s Executive Director, An Do. In the ad, An highlights Tina’s track record as a champion for reproductive rights who passed the nation’s strongest abortion access law when she was Speaker of the Oregon House.
The new ad launches as Oregon’s neighboring state Idaho enacts an extreme, near-total abortion ban – proving that overturning Roe v. Wade was just the first step in the anti-choice movement’s effort to ban abortion in every single state.
Meanwhile, Republican candidate Christine Drazan has celebrated the overturning of Roe vs. Wade, is openly anti-abortion, and is endorsed by Oregon Right to Life. She even sponsored bills that were part of a national anti-abortion effort to intimidate women and doctors with threats of criminal liability for performing safe and legal abortion.
Conservative, unaffiliated candidate Betsy Johnson appointed an anti-abortion extremist to serve as one of her campaign chairs, voted against helping patients keep their reproductive health choices private, and opposes the Reproductive Health Equity Fund.
It’s clear why Tina Kotek is the only candidate in the race who has earned endorsements from Planned Parenthood PAC of Oregon, Pro-Choice Oregon, and The Mother PAC.
