Mike Pence Again Urges Senate To Reject RFK Jr. Nomination Over Previous Abortion Support

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING A conservative group founded by former Vice President Mike Pence is urging Republican lawmakers to reject the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services over his past support for abortion. While public health officials have come out against Kennedy over his spreading of dangerous conspiracy theories and his anti-vaccine stance, conservative advocacy group Advancing American Freedom appears more concerned with Kennedy’s previous comments in support of abortion access. In June, he said abortion “should be unrestricted up until a certain point.” “Even in the reddest of red states, voters reject total abortion bans,” Kennedy said in a video to his supporters. And so I support the emerging consensus that abortion should be unrestricted up until a certain point.” Pence, a Trump critic since the end of the first Trump administration, first urged lawmakers to reject Kennedy’s nomination in November following President-elect Donald Trump’s presidential win.
