Derrick Van Orden Wants to Jail Doctors for Abortion Care

Today, Derrick Van Orden and House Republicans are doubling down on their anti-women agenda and voting to jail doctors and nurses who provide reproductive health care.

Today’s vote proves that Van Orden and House Republicans – despite attempting to mislead voters – will stop at nothing to deny pregnant women lifesaving care and restrict their reproductive rights.

DCCC Spokesperson Courtney Rice:
“Derrick Van Orden and Republicans’ obsession with denying Wisconsin women care and threatening doctors is disturbing, yet unsurprising. After consistently lying to voters on the campaign trail about their extreme anti-choice, anti-women agenda, Van Orden and House Republicans are already working to punish women with legislation that does nothing but further threaten reproductive freedom everywhere.”
