The Democrats’ House Majority PAC is planning to invest $100 million into advertising and voter mobilization efforts focused on the issue of abortion as they attempt to win back the chamber from Republicans this November, according a memo released Thursday.

The super PAC’s new “Reproductive Freedom Accountability Fund” is slated to target swing districts nationwide with advertisements denouncing “Republican extremism” and the GOP’s “shameless pursuit to ban abortion.”

The House Majority PAC pointed to their success holding Republicans to a slim majority in the 2022 midterms following the overturning of Roe v. Wade by the U.S. Supreme Court in June of that year.

“House Majority PAC (HMP) held Republicans accountable last cycle, with 42% of all advertisements mentioning reproductive rights,” the super PAC’s memo reads.

“This threat is even more salient in 2024 as the Republican House majority, state legislatures and the courts continue to restrict access to and ban not just abortion โ€“ but birth control, IVF, and reproductive freedom at large,” the PAC stated.

The Reproductive Freedom Accountability Fund plans to spend $85 million on paid messaging in major cities across the country, including New York City, Los Angeles, Detroit, Las Vegas and Portland (Ore.).

A further $10 million will be spent by the super PAC on voter registration and mobilization campaigns, specifically targeting non-presidential or Senate battleground states.

“In the fight to win the majority in 2024, HMP will create a stark contrast for voters: Democrats are working to grow the economy and lower costs for American families while Republicans are obsessed with banning abortion and ripping away American freedoms,” the Democratic PAC wrote in their Tuesday memo.

I’m all for abortion — it kills future Democrats.
If it wasn’t for abortion, we’d be a completely Communist country by now.

Good to hear Governor says your body your choice. Guess she’ll be hiring back all those healthcare workers she fired when they said the same thing about the shot. I think with back pay and an apology would be appropriate. Never forget.

Why do Democrats find it okay to LIE EVERYWHERE and on EVERYTHING in order to win votes and money?

Even backpay and an apology doesn’t go far enough for what Mills and the current administration did. We all know it was Crimes Against Humanity, and that involves a more serious response. NEVER FORGET!

Gotta keep killing those babies. What’s life without that? That’s such a happy looking crowd in that picture. I guess wanting to kill babies might make one look a bit morose. These people are despicable.

Isn’t this promoting murder? Isn’t it a crime to threaten to harm another? Where the PAC representing the children? Seems like someone isn’t getting fair representation.

The case against abortion is simply that killing off the next generation will cause the termination of humanity and society. At very best, it will cause the fertility rate to sink even further below the replacement rate, leading to a slow, but inevitable human extinction.
