Donald Trump’s choice of J.D. Vance as Vice President is Everything We Expected – and Worse

Released on July 15, 2024

Statement by National NOW President Christian F. Nunes 

WASHINGTON, DC–We knew he was going to select a running mate who would fall in line with former President Donald Trump’s extremist positions that endanger women’s lives, and J.D. Vance has always supported the most restrictive abortion bans and other ways to take away women’s control over their bodily autonomy. 

But what’s even more dangerous is that Vance has a record of his own and ambition to continue Trump’s policies into a Vance presidency.  Trump and Vance will use this campaign to tear down the Biden/Harris record of doing more for women than any other administration. 

But women know when they’re being lied to—and we know the truth about J.D. Vance —and the truth about Donald Trump.  The Trump/Vance ticket is a threat to democracy—but women can save democracy, and we won’t retreat from that mission.
