50 Years Since Roe v. Wade, Tom Kean Jr. Seeks to Further Restrict Reproductive Freedoms

Sunday marks 50 years since the Supreme Court’s Roe decision guaranteed women had the right to reproductive freedom and abortion health care. However, Americans will not be celebrating this year because just 7 months ago, the Republican appointed Supreme Court overturned Roe and restricted women’s bodily autonomy.

Tom Kean Jr. shares the blame for the overturning of Roe, and unfazed by the consequences of Republicans’ war on women, Kean wants to further limit reproductive freedom.

Reminder, Kean:

• Voted to block consideration of the Women’s Health Protection Act which would codify the reproductive freedoms Roe v. Wade guaranteed before the Supreme Court ripped them away.

• Voted to pass anti-choice legislation that could imprison doctors and is “chock-full of misinformation and creates more barriers to care.”

• Voted against codifying abortion rights under Roe in the New Jersey Legislature and launched a secret issues page during his congressional campaign saying he would fight “egregious abortion laws proposed in New Jersey” and continue to do so in Congress.

DCCC spokesperson Tommy Garcia:
“As Americans grapple with a less free world that Republicans made by ripping away reproductive freedom, Tom Kean Jr. is working to make it worse. Instead of working to restore the freedom Roe once guaranteed, Kean is actively working with his fellow MAGA House Republicans to ban abortion nationwide.”
