Democratic group kicks off ad blitz targeting Trump's abortion stance
Voters in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin get their first look Monday at an onslaught of Democratic attack ads against Donald Trump that will be coming their way for the remainder of the election cycle.
The inaugural ad from the Democratic group American Bridge 21st Century features Anna Igler, a Wisconsin OB-GYN and mother of two, who decided to abort her third pregnancy due to a devastating fetal abnormality.
Igler says she "had to end a wanted pregnancy because my baby was very sick."
"So my husband and I made a decision to have an abortion," she says, choking up as she recalls the moment her doctor told her the baby would not survive. "That's not a decision for any politician, including Donald Trump."
"Women need access and should have access to all of their options. Donald Trump wants to criminalize women for making a health care decision, even if it saves a woman's life—that is horrifying," Igler said. "If Trump is reelected, it would be devastating for women's health care."
