Nick LaLota Signs Onto “Pro-IVF” Measure That Does Nothing To…*Checks Notes*…Protect IVF

LaLota recently endorsed Donald Trump, the leading architect of the disastrous Dobbs decision

Nick LaLota and his extreme Republican compatriots are scrambling to save face following the Alabama Supreme Court decision to ban IVF by putting forth legislation that “doesn’t do anything to actually protect the procedure.”

LaLota’s empty support for IVF is a desperate attempt to cover up his dangerous record of restricting reproductive freedoms:

  • On Long Island, Nick LaLota has claimed that abortion rights are a state issue – but quickly turned around in Congress to vote for federal legislation to restrict reproductive care nationally for servicemembers and their families.

  • LaLota supported the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which led to the decision we’re seeing in Alabama over IVF.

  • LaLota endorsed Donald Trump – who is no longer keeping his desire for a national abortion ban private and flirted with the idea of a 15 week abortion ban just last night.

  • And of course, LaLota supported extremist Speaker Mike Johnson – who has co-sponsored a national abortion ban with no exceptions for rape, incest, or to save a woman’s life that would also prohibit IVF and common forms of birth control, and has pushed for 10 years of hard labor from doctors for providing abortion care.

Now, rather than signing onto a bill that *actually* protects IVF nationwide, LaLota is putting on a show to gain a few political points.

DCCC Spokesperson Ellie Dougherty:
“Nick LaLota is bending over backwards to mislead voters on his deliberate and extreme anti-choice record. It couldn’t be more clear that Nick LaLota wants politicians to decide if, how, and when Suffolk women should start a family.”
