WASHINGTON, DC - Today, the National Jewish Democratic Council (NJDC) launched a new ad highlighting the important difference between Senator Barack Obama and Senator John McCain on the issue of reproductive freedom. This is the latest ad in a national ad campaign that will continue to appear in local Jewish newspapers across the country until Election Day.

"While Obama has consistently supported reproductive choice, McCain has long record of being against reproductive choice and has stated that he wants Roe v. Wade to be overturned," said Ira N. Forman, Executive Director of NJDC.

As part of NJDC’s national ad campaign, the latest ad will run in local Jewish newspapers throughout the county this week. The ad, which focuses on reproductive freedom states:


Choice.
Protecting the right to choose starts with your choice this November.

Barack Obama supports a woman’s right to choose.

“I have consistently advocated for reproductive choice and will make preserving
women’s rights under Roe v. Wade a priority as President. I oppose any constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s ruling in this case.”
Statement submitted to NARAL Pro-Choice America, 5/14/07

John McCain opposes a woman’s right to choose.

“I do not support Roe v. Wade. It should be overturned.”
MSNBC, 2/18/07

Protect the right to choose while we still have a choice.

I am a Jewish woman who is a Democrat and want to put a few words together to express how urgent this election is for the American people.

We saw at the V.P. Debate how vindictive, demonic, hateful, vengeful, out-of-touch Sarah Palin’s rehearsed speech was.

Sarah Palin is out-of-touch with reality just like John McCain.

John McCain does not identify with Middle Class hard working Americans.

John McCain is wealthy and will only give tax breaks to the wealthiest American.

Do not believe the lies they are spewing out.

Barack Obama is the only candidate for change.

Together Barack Obama and Joe Biden will take on Washington and get things done for the American people.

I urge everyone reading my blog, to vote on November 4, 2008.

GOD BLESS AMERICA
