Donald Trump Brags About Overturning of Roe v. Wade, Calls it a ‘Miracle’: Tom Kean Jr. Agrees

This week, Donald Trump bragged about his role in stripping away women’s reproductive freedoms saying, “For 54 years they were trying to get Roe v. Wade terminated, and I did it. And I’m proud to have done it… We did something that was a miracle.”

It’s clear that Kean Jr. agrees, given:

  • Tom Kean Jr. said he will fight “every step of the way” to ban abortion. A national ban would override New Jersey state law protecting the right to choose.

  • What’s more, Tom Kean Jr. voted over and over against funding Planned Parenthood, and on his last day in Trenton he voted against protecting the right to an abortion in New Jersey.

REMINDER: According to recent polling, support for abortion access remains at record levels as GOP politicians like Kean Jr. continue to target women and doctors for seeking or providing essential health care.

DCCC Spokesperson Aidan Johnson:
“Tom Kean Jr. has made it crystal clear that he is comfortable stripping constitutional freedoms away from New Jersey women. Republicans have only continued their crusade for a national abortion ban, and Kean Jr. continues to enable them in these dangerous and unpopular attacks.”
