Russell Prescott Campaigns with JD Vance, Leader of the GOP’s Crusade to Restrict Reproductive Freedoms, Over GOTV

Over GOTV weekend, MAGA extremist Russell Prescott chose to spend the final moments before Election Day with JD Vance - Donald Trump's running mate and a leader of the GOP's crusade against Granite Staters' reproductive freedoms.

Prescott and Vance are disturbingly aligned when it comes to pushing a dangerous anti-choice agenda.

Prescott's extreme 20-year anti-choice record tells you everything you need to know:

  • As a State Senator, Prescott repeatedly voted to undermine a woman's right to choose.

    • In 2015, he voted against a bill to require employers to disclose to employees whether their insurance covered contraception.

  • Prescott has also used rhetoric aligned with D.C. politicians pushing for a nationwide abortion ban without any exceptions, and praised the disastrous overturning of Roe v. Wade.

  • Prescott highlighted an endorsement from Senator Rand Paul, who has introduced this draconian abortion ban in the Senate five times.

  • Prescott has touted an endorsement from anti-choice Congresswoman Kat Cammack and floated her as a Vice Presidential candidate for Trump.

  • Prescott also endorsed the leader of the GOP's crusade against women's reproductive freedoms, Donald Trump, in addition to JD Vance, who said he "certainly would like abortion to be illegal nationally."

Meanwhile, Chris Pappas has always fought to protect women's reproductive freedoms, including co-sponsoring the Women's Health Protection Act and the Protecting Reproductive Freedom Act, and will continue to do so when re-elected.

DCCC Spokesperson Ellie Dougherty:
"It's telling that Russell Prescott actively chose to spend the final moments on the campaign trail with JD Vance since the two are working to rip away New Hampshire women's reproductive rights. Granite Staters will reject Prescott and Vance's extremism at the polls tomorrow."
