Laxalt Doubles Down on Opposition to Abortion Rights with Don Jr. Endorsement

On the day the near-total Texas abortion ban takes effect, potentially upending Roe v. Wade and women’s reproductive rights, Adam Laxalt proudly announced he was endorsed by one of the most extreme, anti-abortion members of the Republican party, Donald Trump Jr. 

Adam Laxalt has spent his entire career working to restrict women’s reproductive rights. As Attorney General he chose to sign onto multiple legal efforts that would threaten abortion access, even pledging to “look into” rolling back the law that protects Nevadans’ right to choose.

Donald Trump Jr’s endorsement comes the day after Nevada’s Latino leaders bashed Laxalt for embracing Trump and Laxalt’s job-killing, anti-immigrant and anti-worker agenda that will hurt Nevada’s working families. 

Statement from Senior Communications Advisor, Andy Orellana: 

“From his full embrace of the Trumps to his career working to undermine abortion access, it is clear Adam Laxalt is laser-focused on overturning Roe v. Wade. Announcing the endorsement of an anti-abortion extremist like Don Jr. today shows Laxalt is committed only to the Trumps and the most far-right fringes of his party, not Nevada.”
