While the Supreme Court prepares to overturn Roe v. Wade, the number three Democrat in the House, Rep. James Clyburn, is rallying voters on behalf of Henry Cuellar — the only anti-abortion Democrat in the House.
Clyburn has doubled down his support of Cuellar. Just look at what he told voters at a get-out-the-vote rally in San Antonio.
![Screenshot of tweet that reads Clyburn urges early vote for Cuellar. Tell 'em that you heard it from the No. 3 guy in the House ... the guy who's got to count the votes, the guy who knows what it is to get a bill passed, the guy who [inaudibe] to get the right guy nominated to be your presidential nominee.](https://ecp.yusercontent.com/mail?url=https%3A%2F%2Fs3.amazonaws.com%2Fak-jd%2Fimages%2Feditor-2022-05-05.png&t=1652035435&ymreqid=ce20d81c-da90-a934-1c81-47026901c700&sig=DF1KaofsB3f7yTLD.n7Tjw--~D)
This isn’t the first time that Clyburn has rallied against progressive champions. In 2020, Clyburn went all out in South Carolina to stop Bernie Sanders from securing the Democratic nomination for president. And now, he is bragging about that defeat while rallying for an anti-abortion Democrat.
Jessica Cisneros is running to defeat Henry Cuellar, but she’s going up against powerful forces in the Democratic establishment. Will you make a $10 donation to Justice Democrats so we can fight back and elect someone who will fight for abortion rights in Congress?
House leadership has now doubled down their support for a “Democrat” who voted with Donald Trump 70% of the time. Cuellar is the last anti-abortion Democrat in the House and voted against codifying Roe v. Wade.
Nancy Pelosi, James Clyburn, and other Democratic leaders have made it clear that they back Cuellar 100% and will fight to keep him in Congress. But at this critical moment in our nation’s history, that is not acceptable.
We need Democrats in Congress who will fight for reproductive justice. If you agree, make a contribution to Justice Democrats so we can defeat Henry Cuellar on May 24th.
In solidarity,
Justice Democrats
