DCCC Releases New TV Ad in WA-03: “Infuriating”

The DCCC released a new TV ad in the race for WA-03, "Infuriating," highlighting Joe Kent's support for a national abortion ban with no exceptions for rape, incest, or the woman's life.

The ad features a woman discussing the dangers of Kent's support for a national abortion ban and what a ban would mean for young survivors of sexual assault. Kent has compared abortion to slavery, said that "the federal government should outlaw it in all the states," and said he was ecstatic about the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

The ad - the second to run in WA-03 from the DCCC IE - is airing in the Portland and Seattle media markets beginning today and is part of the committee's previously announced investments in key battleground districts.

The trauma never goes away.

As a victim, it's infuriating that Joe Kent would force girls to carry their rapists' child.

Joe Kent wants to ban abortion without exception.

Joe Kent: "I don't think you should be able to get an abortion."

It is dangerous, and it's absolutely disgusting.
