Pro-Choice Voter Guide: Ohio District 04
Rep. Jim Jordan
Rep. Jim Jordan (R) is anti-choice. He is the incumbent.
Rep. Jordan earned a 0 percent score in NARAL Pro-Choice America's 2011 Congressional Record on Choice.
Voted twice to block Planned Parenthood from receiving any federal funds, which would have denied millions of Americans access to contraception, cancer screenings, and other basic medical care.
Voted for H.R.3, a bill that would ban abortion coverage in state health-insurance exchanges; impose tax penalties on small businesses and many individuals who purchase private health plans that include abortion coverage; and make permanent several restrictions that block many women from accessing abortion care.
Voted to allow hospitals to refuse to provide emergency abortion care to women who could die without it.
"In this debate we have an even greater choice to make. We are not just making a decision for our own families, but for millions of American families. The pro-life majority of this country has made it clear that we will not allow our values to be hijacked by this debate. On the issue of life, we are about to cast career-defining votes. Rarely in public service is the choice so clear or the stakes higher. Now is such a time for choosing. I urge you to choose life and support this motion."
Rep. Jordan received a 100 percent rating from the National Right to Life Committee in 2011.
