By Josh Israel -September 14, 2020 1:08 PM
New Hampshire Republican Gov. Chris Sununu has worked to undermine reproductive choice since his last election.
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu calls himself a "pro-choice" Republican. But he has repeatedly undermined abortion rights while in office.
Sununu, who is currently seeking a third two-year term, proclaimed himself an abortion rights supporter in both his 2016 and his 2018 campaigns.
"I'm pro-choice. I support Roe v. Wade," he told Manchester, New Hampshire, station WMUR in July 2018 after he was criticized for supporting Donald Trump's nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court. ""As a governor, I don't judge any single judge on a single-issue litmus test."
The president of Planned Parenthood of Northern New England, Sabrina Dunlap, told WMUR:"It is contradictory to call yourself pro-choice and support a nominee to the Supreme Court who poses the biggest threat to reproductive rights in a generation."
