Mike Lawler Wants to Jail Doctors for Abortion Care

Today, Mike Lawler 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 Lawler 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 Ellie Dougherty:
"Mike Lawler and Republicans' obsession with denying Lower Hudson Valley 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, Lawler and House Republicans are already working to punish women with legislation that does nothing but further threaten reproductive freedom everywhere."
