Extreme Anti-Choice Groups Prop Up Larkin Campaign

Larkin tries to downplay support for national abortion ban while lining campaign coffers with money from anti-abortion groups

Matt Larkin is trying desperately to distract from his support for a national abortion ban without exceptions for rape or incest – but that hasn’t stopped his campaign from raking in money from radical anti-abortion groups.

Larkin just collected a $2,000 check from the National Pro-Life Alliance PAC, an extremist organization that asks candidates to commit to a constitutional amendment that bans abortion from the moment of conception, with no exceptions for rape or incest.

Larkin has already made his position on a federal abortion ban clear, telling supporters, “I can see a strong conservative Congress putting forward that vote to ban it nationally.” Larkin also said “I don’t believe in the exceptions … for rape and incest or things like that.” 

As the right to choose hangs in the balance, Larkin has proven time and time again that he would be a reliable vote to ban abortion nationwide, overturning current protections in Washington state.

DCCC Spokesperson Johanna Warshaw:
“Matt Larkin is a dangerous extremist who has already pledged his support for a nationwide abortion ban without exceptions for rape or incest. It’s no surprise he is filling his campaign coffers from groups leading the charge to ban abortion nationwide – just like he’s long pushed for.”
