House Democrats are adding two new names to the list of candidates they hope will capture open seats. It's an early example of Democrats' campaign apparatus going on offense after the Supreme Court overturned Roe.
DCCC Chair Sean Patrick Maloney specifically honed in on abortion in a statement announcing the additions, accusing Republicans of lining their bench with "extremists fixated on rolling back progress and banning abortion nationwide."in favor of Republicans and just two in favor of Democrats.
The DCCC's press release specifically labeled insurance agent Monica De La Cruz, Vallejo's Trump-endorsed opponent, a "Republican extremist." It made no mention of Ryan's rivals, Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro in NY-19 and state Rep. Colin Schmitt in NY-18. Ryan said in a statement the special election will be "the first competitive Congressional election in a post-Roe world," pledging to put "reproductive freedom, gun safety and democracy itself at the center of our ... campaign.
Molinaro spokesperson William Dawson said in a statement, "Democrats have created too many crises to count. Families are facing record inflation, an energy catastrophe, and a national crime wave as a direct result of the incompetence of those currently in power."
