The Senate Judiciary Committee has advanced Todd Blanche's nomination for Attorney General. It was a 12-10 vote that he secured only after formally rescinding an anti-weaponization fund to bring two holdout senators on board.
There has been recent reporting that Blanche privately told religious leaders he intends to use the Comstock Act to ban mailing medication abortion nationwide. They discuss why this isn't just a "red state" issue. In fact, even states with constitutional abortion protections, like California and Michigan, could see medication abortion access cut off.
We also discuss Blanche's record dismissing FACE Act cases meant to protect clinics and providers. This is a call to action for voters in states with pivotal Senate seats like Maine, Alaska, and Ohio to speak up before the full Senate vote.
