LD38 Democrats Release New Ads Spotlighting Access to Abortion
Bergen County, NJ – Today, the 38th District Democrats released their second TV ad – “My New Jersey.” Teri, a Bergen County nurse, shares the story of her lifesaving abortion and reminds us what’s at stake in this election.
“We had been trying for years when the unimaginable happened – my doctor told me I needed a lifesaving abortion,” said Teri, a Bergen County nurse. “I had seen cases like my own in the ER, but then it happened to me. Without that abortion, I wouldn’t have two beautiful children today.”
Micheline Attieh, Barry Wilkes, and Gail Horton will be a rubber stamp for extremists in Trenton, who have already tried to ban most abortions in New Jersey, arrest doctors, and impose penalties for seeking care. Two new digital ads, “Roe” and “Extreme,” will also begin airing simultaneously across the district, which further share Teri’s story.
My New Jersey Script: “We were already making plans after years of trying. Then, the unthinkable: My doctor told me I needed a lifesaving abortion. I’m a nurse, I’ve seen cases like this, but then it happened to me. Without that procedure, I wouldn’t have two beautiful children today. Now, extreme politicians like Micheline Attieh, Barry Wilkes, and Gail Horton want new abortion bans in New Jersey, standing between women like me and our doctors. Not in my New Jersey.”
Roe Script: “I’ve lived my life with Roe v. Wade, and now I have a daughter who is potentially looking at her future without these choices, standing between women like me and our doctors. Not in my New Jersey.”
Extreme Script: “Extreme politicians like Micheline Attieh, Barry Wilkes, and Gail Horton want new abortion bans in New Jersey, standing between women like me and our doctors. Not in my New Jersey.”
Watch: “My New Jersey,” "Roe" and "Extreme"
