EMILY’s List President Jessica Mackler said voters are living in a "state of chaos and cruelty" because of Trump's record on reproductive rights.

As former President Donald Trump moves closer to selecting his running mate, a major Democratic abortion-rights advocacy group is taking his pool of vice presidential contenders to task over their records on reproductive rights.

EMILY’s List, a group dedicated to electing Democratic candidates who back abortion rights, is focusing its annual “On Notice” list on Trump’s ever-evolving list of running mate contenders to highlight what it calls their “extreme anti-abortion agenda.”

The list of 14 GOP contenders for the vice presidential nomination the group names includes oft-mentioned figures like Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, Rep. Elise Stefanik of New York, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, as well as other former administration officials and allies, like Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida, Sen. Katie Britt of Alabama and Arizona Senate candidate Kari Lake.

The group also lists former Republican presidential candidates like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy and former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley.

I wouldn't be surprised at this point if he chose one of his kids to be the VP.
