New information about Josh Hawley’s family business to ban abortion

[Lucas Kunce for U.S. Senate] {NAME} — from overturning Roe to banning abortion drugs, Josh Hawley turned his mission to criminalize abortion nationwide into a family business — and he’s abused his power to do it. Please let me explain: [Tweet from Josh Hawley on June 24, 2022: For those who wondered why I said, two years ago, I would vote to confirm ONLY Supreme Court Justices who acknowledged Roe was wrong, this is why. Amy Barrett was the first openly pro-life nominee of my lifetime. And she was the deciding vote.]( [DEFEAT JOSH HAWLEY]( IN 2017: Matt Kacsmaryk was nominated to be a federal judge for the north Texas district court. His confirmation stalled for years. We learned he even lied to hide just how bizarre his obsession with controlling people’s bodies really is: [Headline from The Dallas Morning News: John Cornyn says Judge Kacsmaryk should not have taken name off anti-abortion article. Excerpt: 'The process only works if we... have candor and truthful answers. So that's significant,' said Cornyn, a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee responsible for vetting Kacsmaryk's nomination.]( IN 2018: While his nomination languished in the Senate, Kacsmaryk made an investment in his future. So he became a campaign donor to Josh Hawley, a fellow member of the Federalist Society — a group of corporate activist lawyers with funders including Chevron, Google, and the Kochs. IN 2019: Now a U.S. Senator, Josh Hawley decided to make Kacsmaryk, his campaign donor, a federal judge. Hawley confirmed Kacsmaryk to the northern Texas district court — despite bipartisan opposition over Kacsmaryk’s Big Brother views on contraceptives and personal freedoms. IN 2022: A lawsuit was filed in the northern Texas district court by activist lawyers seeking to ban an abortion pill that millions have used safely. Abortion medication accounts for over half of all abortions. Josh Hawley’s wife led the suit. His donor was the judge. [Photos of Josh Hawley and Texas Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk on the left. On the right, a Vanity Fair headline that reads: Erin Morrow Hawley is leading the charge to ban abortion medication. She's also Josh Hawley's wife.]( APRIL 2023: Hawley’s donor judge ruled in favor of the suit led by Hawley’s wife, calling for a near-immediate ban on the abortion pill mifepristone in all 50 states. This was the first time a judge has ever unilaterally tried to take a drug off the market against FDA objections. Then, in his official capacity as U.S. Senator, Josh Hawley submitted an amicus brief demanding that the Supreme Court end a temporary injunction blocking the ruling (in his wife's lawsuit) by a judge (his campaign donor) to ban America's most commonly-used abortion medication. AND NOW: We’ve learned that the mifepristone case, led by Hawley’s wife, will be argued in front of the Supreme Court on March 26. [POLITICO headline: Supreme Court sets date for high-stakes abortion pill oral arguments. Excerpt: The Supreme Court on Monday set a date for one of the highest-stakes and closest-watched cases of the term — announcing it will hear oral arguments on how patients can access mifepristone, the commonly used abortion pill, on March 26.]( But this is hardly the first time that the Hawley family business has made it all the way to the Supreme Court: This is what corruption looks like — and this year, we’re going to make Hawley own it. [So if you’re ready to end these Big Brother attacks on abortion and send a real warrior for working people to represent Missouri in the U.S. Senate, please rush a donation of $10 or whatever you can afford to my grassroots campaign right now.]( If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly: [Contribute $10]( [Contribute $25]( [Contribute $30]( [Contribute $50]( [Contribute $100]( [Contribute $250]( [Give another amount]( Senators shouldn’t be in the business of using their position to benefit their family’s legal careers and activism — especially if there’s a financial incentive to do so. And there shouldn’t even be a hint of campaign donations impacting who, when, and how a judge gets on a court. When I’m in the U.S. Senate, I’ll vote to restore Roe v. Wade. But I’ll also fight to end corruption like this by: - Barring Senators from voting on judicial nominees who’ve given to their campaigns. - Barring Senators from lobbying any court to benefit an immediate relative. Everyday Missourians deserve a Senator who will stand up and fight for their personal freedoms — not another corrupt politician obsessed with controlling our bodies, families, and lives — and I’m ready to serve. [If you’re with me, please rush a donation of $10 or whatever you can afford to our grassroots campaign to defeat Josh Hawley today. Real people like you are the only folks I ever want to be accountable to in the U.S. Senate, so your support means the world to me.]( [DEFEAT JOSH HAWLEY]( Thank you, — Lucas Kunce [Donate]( [Like on Facebook]( [Follow on Twitter]( [Follow on Instagram]( Paid for by Lucas Kunce for Missouri This email was sent to [{EMAIL}](#). Email is the most important way we keep in touch with people like you.
