Rosen also discussed dangerous Supreme Court decision reversing federal ban on bump stock devices that were used during 1 October shooting in Las Vegas
Senator Jacky Rosen appeared on MSNBC’s Morning Joe today ahead of the anniversary of the Supreme Court’s disastrous decision overturning Roe v. Wade to discuss the stakes of the Nevada U.S. Senate race for abortion rights. While Rosen has been fighting to protect Nevadans’ reproductive freedoms, MAGA extremist Sam Brown has a decade-long record of pushing radical anti-abortion policies.
Rosen also spoke about the Supreme Court’s recent decision to reverse a federal ban on bump stocks – dangerous weapons modifications that were used during the 1 October shooting in Las Vegas – and pushed back against Republicans who have shamefully dismissed the threat of bump stocks as a “fake problem.”
WATCH:
On Reproductive Freedom:
- “Make no mistake, since they overturned Roe, we know the consequences of what’s been happening all across this country. The attack on women’s freedom, the attack on women’s rights. And we saw just this last week in the Senate that my Republican colleagues wouldn’t support access to contraception or reproductive assistance.”
- “This is why it’s really important for us to keep a Democratic Senate, pro choice majority, one that wants to protect women’s freedom to protect our values – not have women dying in emergency room parking lots because they can’t get the care they need, and being able to get the contraception that they need so they can start a family when and where and how they want to.”
- “… the MAGA extremists, like Sam Brown… they’re waging a war on women. Nevadans aren’t going to have it.”
On Bump Stock Ban:
- “Well, I said shame on JD Vance, and I say shame on anyone who disrespects the dead. Let them come to Nevada and see what someone who wanted to be a cold blooded murderer, executioner, planned and plotted this and bought bump stocks, just so he could do the most damage in the shortest amount of time.”
- “We have an obligation to keep people safe. That’s what’s most important.”
