Kathleen Vinehout - the next Governor of Wisconsin!

[Wisco Woman]

32. But Vinehout also kinda left out part of the story

Check out NARAL Pro-Choice Wisconsin's press release:

In case you want to see for yourself, here is the text of her amendments - Note that it clearly states a woman can be denied her prescription because either the pharmacist or the pharmacy's management objects to filling it:

And it's not just about the Birth Control Protection Act. Some other anti-choice votes from Vinehout include:
1. Voted against repealing Wisconsin's criminal abortion ban. This is a law still on the books from the 1800s that declares abortion a criminal offense - and attaches criminal penalties for both doctors and women who seek abortions - and would go into effect immediately should Roe v. Wade be overturned. Anyone who claims to be pro-choice should be in favor of repeal, but Vinehout voted with anti-choice legislators on it. She was the ONLY DEMOCRAT on the committee to vote against this.

2. Voted with anti-choice Republicans (again, the ONLY DEMOCRAT in the State Senate) against re-appointing 2 members to the UW Hospital Board of Authority because they supported providing abortion services at the Madison Surgery Center.

3. Voted for a resolution to honor so-called Crisis Pregnancy Centers, which serve as the provider arm of the pro-life movement and use deception and scare tactics to prevent women from making informed decisions about all of their choices when facing an unintended pregnancy.

4. Voted against the Birth Control Protection Act after her amendments failed. Again, she was the ONLY DEMOCRAT in the State Senate to vote against this bill.

Women's rights are under attack in Wisconsin - especially our reproductive rights. Can you count on Vinehout to stand up to these attacks? Will she be the leader we need on women's health? Can we trust her to do the right thing on the multitude of proposed laws attacking our reproductive rights? Or will she sign into law dangerous bills like Rep. Craig's ban on certain abortion procedures even when necessary to safe the life of the woman, Grothmann and Jacque's Choose Life license plates to funnel money to the so-called CPCs that Vinehout was so willing to honor, Lazich and Litjen's crazy bill further restricting access to abortion, and more?

Anyone taking on Walker is going to be pro-labor. For the sake of Wisconsin women, whoever challenges Walker in this recall election needs to be firmly pro-choice.
