John James Wants to Jail Doctors for Abortion Care

Today, John James 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 James 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 Nebeyatt Betre:
“John James and Republicans’ obsession with denying Michigan 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, James and House Republicans are already working to punish women with legislation that does nothing but further threaten reproductive freedom everywhere.”
