Marking One Year Without Roe, DCCC Launches Campaign to Hold Monica De La Cruz Accountable for Anti-Abortion Extremism

One year after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade, Monica De La Cruz has continued her assault on reproductive freedoms, despite an overwhelming 80% of Americans who oppose a national abortion ban. To highlight just how out of step De La Cruz is with the voters she represents, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee this week announced new, early efforts to hold De La Cruz accountable for her anti-abortion crusade.

The campaign in Texas includes:

• A new microsite, expanding upon an investment from last year that outlines De La Cruz’s dangerous attacks on access to reproductive health care

• Three new digital ads, backed by four-figure buys, that will run against De La Cruz and other vulnerable House Republicans

The DCCC is making the stakes of this election crystal clear in Texas. With this campaign and others throughout the cycle, the DCCC will continue to highlight the extreme anti-abortion positions that Monica De La Cruz has staked out.

To that end, the DCCC is distributing a fact sheet highlighting De La Cruz’s dangerous positions on stripping away reproductive freedoms HERE. 

DCCC spokesperson Jacob Haythorn:
“Monica De La Cruz, who is endorsed by the fervently anti-choice SBA List, will stop at nothing to ban abortion nationwide. In the earliest weeks of the MAGA majority, she voted to punish doctors for providing reproductive care. De La Cruz cannot be trusted to defend Texas womens’ fundamental rights and freedoms and, as a result, will be voted out of office in 2024.”

Earlier this week, the DCCC released a memo detailing why abortion remains a key electoral issue for 2024, which can be found HERE.
