"The pro-choice group NARAL called the Mitt Romney-Paul Ryan ticket “a serious threat” for women.
From NARAL President Nancy Keenan:
“Rep. Paul Ryan’s extreme anti-choice record shows just how serious a threat Mitt Romney’s presidency would be for women. He has cast 59 votes on reproductive rights while in Congress and not one has been pro-choice. Rep. Ryan has also repeatedly voted to defund family-planning programs and supported the ‘Let Women Die Bill,’ which would allow hospitals to refuse to provide a woman emergency, lifesaving abortion care, even if she could die without it. It comes as no surprise that Romney would choose a like-minded running mate who is just as out of touch with our nation’s values and priorities as he is. The Romney-Ryan ticket is dangerous to women’s health.”
The Obama campaign recently returned (http://2012.talkingpointsmemo.com/2012/08/mitt-romney-war-on-women-is-back-obama.php)to its focus on women, and the NARAL announcement suggests that push won’t come to an end after Ryan’s selection. "
