Kavanaugh Conflates Birth Control with Abortion

HeadlineSep 07, 2018

Meanwhile, women’s rights groups are blasting Kavanaugh’s statement Thursday conflating contraception with abortion. NARAL Pro-Choice America tweeted, “Kavanaugh just referred to birth control as 'abortion-inducing drugs,' which is not only an anti-science lie, it’s an anti-choice extremist phrase that shows that our right to access both abortion and contraception would be in SERIOUS danger if he is confirmed.” We’ll have more on Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court later in the broadcast.
