Pro-Life Canvassers to Visit 500K Ohio Homes to Expose Brown’s Lies & Extremism

TOLEDO, Ohio – Democrat Sherrod Brown’s radical campaign funders include one of America’s most notorious late-term abortionists, Planned Parenthood, and a billionaire “abortion doula” whose stated “life goal” is to “aid and abet people getting abortions,” a new report revealed today.

Pro-abortion donors have contributed more than six figures to Brown’s campaign for U.S. Senate, reporting by The Daily Signal shows. This includes more than $3,000 from retired Colorado abortionist Warren Hern, who once estimated that at least half of the late-term abortions he committed in his decades-long career were of healthy babies with healthy mothers. Hern has openly stated his belief that every pregnancy is a “medical problem” justifying any abortion. In a profile piece by The Atlantic, he even admitted carrying out late-term abortions based solely on whether the child was a boy or girl.

SBA Pro-Life America and its partner Women Speak Out PAC previously announced their plan to visit 500,000 voters at their homes by Election Day to defeat Sherrod Brown and support pro-life Republican U.S. Senator Jon Husted, as well as to elect pro-life champions in key U.S. House races and the gubernatorial race. The campaign will also include digital advertising, voter contact mail and a robust early vote campaign as the races progress.

SBA Pro-Life America Candidate Fund has endorsed Husted for Senate as well as Vivek Ramaswamy for governor.

This election cycle, SBA Pro-Life America and its affiliated entities plan to spend $80 million to protect life across America. The groups’ voter contact program—the largest and most effective of its kind in the country—includes reaching 10 million voters across Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Iowa, Montana, South Carolina, Georgia and Texas.

SBA Pro-Life America Political Communications Director Kelsey Pritchard slammed Brown’s extremism:

“Sherrod Brown’s ‘moderate’ act is a lie—he consistently votes to funnel taxpayer dollars to the abortion industry and supports a federal all-trimester, zero-limits abortion mandate for all 50 states. No wonder a who’s who of abortion activists—including late-term abortionist Warren Hern who will abort healthy babies for any reason, abortion giant Planned Parenthood, and even a so-called abortion doula—are banking on his Senate comeback. Brown won’t talk about his radical record and abortion industry ties on the campaign trail, but our passionate canvassers do as they work to reach half a million Buckeye State voters at their doors through Election Day to expose the Democrats’ agenda. We’ve defeated Sherrod Brown before, and with champions like Jon Husted on the side of life, we’re fired up to do it again this November.”

Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America is a network of more than one million pro-life Americans nationwide, dedicated to ending abortion by electing national leaders and advocating for laws that save lives, with a special calling to promote pro-life women leaders.

Women Speak Out PAC is a partner of SBA Pro-Life America, a super PAC amplifying the voices of women opposed to abortion extremists. Since 2014, Women Speak Out PAC has built the largest pro-life on-the-ground political campaign in the country.
