As a member of Congress, Pence sponsored the first bill to defund Planned Parenthood in 2007 — and did so repeatedly through 2011, when it finally passed the House.

 

I happened to have interviewed Pence about his criticism of Planned Parenthood that year, and it was clearly an issue he was passionate about. He had been working to defund the organization for years at that point, even while his colleagues focused on other issues.

 

"If Planned Parenthood wants to be involved in providing counseling services and HIV testing, they ought not be in the business of providing abortions," Pence told me, sitting in his congressional office. "As long as they aspire to do that, I’ll be after them."

 

Pence’s previous record on Planned Parenthood suggests that defunding it could remain a priority for him if he became vice president. As Steve Ertelt, a writer at the anti-abortion website LifeNews, argues, "His selection would go a long way towards mollifying concerns some pro-life voters have had about Trump."

Trump giving FlatEarth references, what he was seeing under the wing of that plane, it was beautiful. He wanted to fly around (circle) again.

>>16786193 ONLY DEMOCRATS AND ABORTIONISTS HATE MIKE PENCE.

If you needed a reminder of Pence’s record on abortion:

 

Mike Pence has long believed that Roe v. Wade should be sent to “the ash heap of history.”

 

July 2016: “[If Trump is elected] we’ll see Roe vs. Wade consigned to the ash heap of history where it belongs.”

 

February 2011: “I long for the day that Roe v. Wade is sent to the ash heap of history”

 

Mike Pence bragged about the Trump administration’s anti-choice record and his role in casting a tie-breaking vote to defund Planned Parenthood.

 

May 2018: “I’m pro-life and I don’t apologize for it and I couldn’t be more honored to serve shoulder to shoulder with the most pro-life president in my lifetime. President Donald Trump has taken one step after another to affirm this administration’s commitment to the sanctity of life.”

 

June 2019: “I was honored to cast the tie-breaking vote and to watch the President sign legislation that allowed states across the country to defund Planned Parenthood.”

 

Mike Pence touted the Trump administration’s success in appointing Supreme Court Justices Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Coney Barrett as well as other anti-abortion federal judges.

 

February 2018: “This President has been busy appointing strict constructionists to our federal courts at every level including Justice Neil Gorsuch on the Supreme Court of the United States. These are men and women that will uphold the God-given liberties enshrined in our Constitution, and there’s more to come.”

 

December 2020: “[Trump] said, and he promised, ‘I will appoint judges that will be pro-life.’ And that’s just what he’s done… With yesterday’s confirmation of the judge who will fill the seat of the newest justice on the Supreme Court, President Trump has appointed more than 220 conservatives to our federal courts at every level, including Justice Neil Gorsuch, Justice Brett Kavanaugh, and Justice Amy Coney Barrett.”

 

As governor of Indiana, Mike Pence signed anti-choice legislation into law every year of his tenure.

 

New York Times: “Since his election as governor, in 2012, [Pence] has signed anti-abortion measures every year he has been in office.”

 

Pence in August 2012: “If the Legislature sends me pro-life legislation, I’ll sign it.”

 

Let’s be clear: Mike Pence has long been one of the most extreme voices on abortion within the Republican Party. His plans to ban abortion pills are nothing short of an assault on women’s rights and health care. Americans cannot afford Pence’s dangerous, anti-choice agenda.
