Ken Calvert Wants to Jail Doctors for Abortion Care

Today, Ken Calvert 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 Calvert 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 Viet Shelton:
"Ken Calvert and Republicans' obsession with denying California 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, Calvert and House Republicans are already working to punish women with legislation that does nothing but further threaten reproductive freedom everywhere."
