“Mother” recounts a pregnancy lost at seven months but still carried to term at a time when abortion care was limited and Senator Mannion’s vow to bring his record in New York of passing the strongest abortion protections in the country to the U.S. Congress
Syracuse, NY— Senator John Mannion released his second campaign ad in the race for NY-22 featuring the deeply personal story of his mother being forced to carry a stillborn baby to term in pre-Roe America.
The spot, “Mother,” recounts a pregnancy lost at seven months but still carried to term at a time when abortion and reproductive healthcare were limited and Senator Mannion’s vow to bring his record in New York of passing the strongest abortion protections in the country to the U.S. Congress.
Senator John W. Mannion said, “Carrying a stillborn child was the most difficult thing my mother experienced in her lifetime – she described it as ‘torture.’ No woman should have to endure that in 2024 in the United States of America. If you believe in a woman’s right to choose, IVF, and maternal healthcare – stand with me and reject Brandon Williams and the MAGA Republicans who are trying to turn back the clock and erode longstanding rights.”
Senator Mannion is a staunch advocate for women’s rights, specifically championing legislation that protects women’s autonomy over their reproductive health, and protecting access to abortion services in New York. His active involvement in passing multiple significant bills in the NY State Senate underscores his dedication to upholding fundamental rights and ensuring equality for all.
The Democratic Primary for New York’s 22nd Congressional District is June 25th
