John Mannion: “If it’s a ‘monumental victory’ to take away a woman’s right to choose, then I don’t believe you understand where women are.”
After tonight’s first debate in New York’s 22nd Congressional District, it remains clear that MAGA extremist Brandon Williams – who hasrepeatedlybeenlisted as one of the most vulnerable House Republicans in the country – is pushing a dangerous agenda that’s putting Central New York and Mohawk Valley families in harm’s way.
Tonight, Williams doubled down on his far-right plans to:
Again support the disastrous overturning of Roe v. Wade and refuse to support protections for women forced to cross state lines to receive reproductive health care.
Back a national abortion ban without exceptions, IVF, and forms of contraceptives.
Slash Social Security and Medicare.
Defund public schools by diverting funds to private schools.
Defund local law enforcement.
Refuse to support critical legislation that is creating good-paying jobs, after he again called the CHIPS and Science Act that attracted Micron to NY-22 “corporate welfare.”
Meanwhile, NY-22 Democratic nominee John Mannion outlined his comprehensive plans to pass a national reproductive freedom bill to restore Roe v. Wade protections, secure the border, lower costs, and protect Social Security and Medicare once in Congress.
DCCC Spokesperson Ellie Dougherty:
“Tonight’s debate underscored once again that John Mannion will bring common sense leadership back to Central New York and the Mohawk Valley while Brandon Williams has done nothing but fail to deliver on critical issues and cave to extremism.”
