Sam Brown: “Dobbs strengthened Nevada’s protections for abortion.”
Over the weekend, MAGA extremist Sam Brown doubled down on his support for the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade and even tried to claim that the end of Roe actually strengthened abortion rights in Nevada. Huh?
In a Las Vegas Sun op-ed, Brown continued his desperate quest to cover up his decade-long anti-abortion record, falsely claiming that “Dobbs strengthened Nevada’s protections for abortion.”
Brown also criticized Senator Jacky Rosen for standing up for Nevadans’ reproductive freedom by supporting the Women’s Healthcare Protection Act, which would codify the protections of Roe v. Wade into federal law.
Brown’s decade-long anti-abortion record includes strongly supporting efforts to overturn Roe v. Wade and backing extreme abortion bans without exceptions for rape or incest, including a Texas ban which was considered one of the “toughest restrictions in the country.” He even managed the campaign of a “100% pro-life, no exceptions” Congressional candidate in Texas and has said that his anti-abortion views are “non-negotiable.”
Nevada State Democratic Party Spokesperson Katharine Kurz
“Sam Brown saying that Roe v. Wade being overturned actually strengthened reproductive freedom in Nevada is an insult to our voters and Americans in the 20+ states that have faced extreme abortion bans in the last two years. No matter what he says now, Brown has made it clear he will say or do anything to try to get elected, even if it means gaslighting Nevadans by telling them the devastating decision to overturn Roe was a good one.”
