Tyler Kistner Accepts Endorsement of Extremist Anti-Choice Group Committed to Enacting Nationwide Abortion Ban

07/18/2022

Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America President said her group will work to restrict abortion “in every state and in every legislature, including the Congress.”

Last week, Republican candidate for Congress in Minnesota’s 2nd District Tyler Kistner proudly touted an endorsement from Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, a group dedicated to criminalizing abortion nationwide.

The president of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, Marjorie Dannenfelser, told Axios last month that, following the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, her group will work to restrict abortion “in every state and in every legislature, including the Congress.”

Tyler Kistner calls himself “100% pro-life” and, when asked about the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade, said “that decision should be left at the states to decide.”

“Tyler Kistner’s endorsement from Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America should set off alarm bells for every Minnesotan who values freedom and privacy. This endorsement means Tyler is a guaranteed vote in favor of criminalizing abortion in every state nationwide –– including here in Minnesota,” DFL Party Chairman Ken Martin said. “Tyler Kistner’s radical anti-choice agenda is out of touch with this district, and we will not let him take away our rights.”
