Dems: Walker ‘Extreme’ On Women’s Health
As polls show that Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is increasingly likely to survive efforts to recall him, Democrats on Tuesday accused him of trying to limit women’s access to health care. Rep. Gwen Moore (D-Wis.) said support for Walker from Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell — he’s campaigning in the state Tuesday –underscores that the two are “birds of a feather.” “Just as Gov. Bob McDonnell has tried the radical transvaginal ultrasound bill … Scott Walker has indeed embraced extreme positions on women’s health care,” Moore told reporters on a conference call, citing Walker’s “broken contracts” with the state’s Planned Parenthood chapter (Haberkorn, 5/29).
