Talking Points: RFK Jr. and Jill Stein will not defend reproductive freedom

Third Way

For voters who care about reproductive freedom, supporting third-party candidates like RFK Jr. or Jill Stein is simply not an option.
RFK Jr.’s position on abortion and reproductive rights is rife with anti-science takes, conspiracy theories, and radical policies that are out of touch with the American majority.
In recent months, Kennedy has repeatedly shifted his positions to suit his audience, consistently undermining womens’ reproductive freedom. He has:
- Repeatedly endorsed a 15-week abortion ban;
- Stated the government has a “claim” to unborn children; and
- Held campaign events at an anti-abortion center.
Meanwhile, his running mate is best known for her war on IVF—an essential medical procedure for women who want to get pregnant, but struggle to do so.
Jill Stein is no better and her candidacy exists only to help Donald Trump—again.
Stein played a critical role in helping to elect Donald Trump, who appointed the Supreme Court that overturned Roe v. Wade. She was totally silent on Trump’s anti-abortion justices and attacks Joe Biden instead of Trump, who boasts about wiping out reproductive rights.
RFK Jr. and Jill Stein care more about helping the Red Team than defending reproductive freedom. A vote for either is a vote for Donald Trump, letting him appoint more anti-abortion judges to the federal courts.
