Two years ago, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade and took away a woman’s right to have an abortion.
In the two years since Kevin Coughlin cheered for the fall of Roe, his extreme party has worked to further restrict women’s reproductive freedoms – from working to outlaw abortion medication to voting to allow states to implement abortion bans.
Coughlin himself has helped elect and is proudly backed by the author of Ohio’s six-week abortion ban that has no exceptions for rape or incest, and Coughlin has even bragged that he’s “either co-sponsored or voted for every allowable Roe v. Wade state restriction.”
In the Statehouse, Coughlin co-sponsored and voted for legislation that opposed funding and health care coverage for abortions. Coughlin also voted to restrict access to medication abortion, including Mifepristone.
DCCC Spokesperson Aidan Johnson:
“Kevin Coughlin can’t hide the reality of his anti-choice extremism. Ohioans know Coughlin celebrated as women across the country had their reproductive freedom ripped away, and voters will hold him accountable for his continued extremism this November.”
