With 36 races on the map this November, 80% of Americans will cast their vote for their next governor. We need to invest NOW to expand our map, win in battleground states, protect our blue firewall of Dem govs, and flip critical states from red to blue. Can Dem govs count on you to chip in right now?
WATCH: New TV Ad Slams Tudor Dixon’s Plan to Throw Doctors and Nurses Behind Bars
Put Michigan First is launching a new TV ad — “Behind Bars” — exposing Tudor Dixon’s support for a radical law that would ban abortion and throw doctors and nurses behind bars. Watch the new ad here.
Dixon has called Michigan’s 1931 abortion ban, which has no exceptions for rape or incest and would criminalize abortion, “a good law.” The law would make it a felony for doctors and nurses to perform abortions.
“Tudor Dixon’s radical plan to ban and criminalize abortion without exceptions is dangerous for Michigan women, doctors, and nurses,” said Put Michigan First Spokesperson Sam Newton. “With this ad, we’re continuing to hold Dixon accountable and show Michiganders how out of touch and extreme she really is.”
See below for the full transcript of the thirty-second video:
Narrator: When Tudor Dixon says she wants to ban abortion with no exceptions…
Interviewer: Are you for the exemptions for rape and incest?
Tudor Dixon: I am not.
Narrator: You should know Dixon backs a law to criminalize abortion and put nurses in jail just for doing their job.
News Anchor: Doctors and nurses who perform abortions under that law would be guilty of a felony.
News Anchor: Could face four years behind bars.
Narrator: Putting nurses in jail. She called it “a good law.” That’s Tudor Dixon — and that’s too dangerous for Michigan.
