DES MOINES - Obama for America is releasing a new television ad that highlights President Obama's commitment to issues important to women and their families. The new ad - "The Same" - draws the stark contrast between President Obama and the Romney-Ryan ticket's record on women's health.
Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have taken extreme positions on issues that matter to women and their families. From promising to "get rid of" Planned Parenthood to backing proposals that would take away a woman's right to choose, women recognize they cannot trust the Romney-Ryan ticket to stand up for them.
President Obama is committed to protecting women's health because he knows that women are capable of making their own choices when it comes to their health care. The President has repeatedly fought back against Republican efforts to defund Planned Parenthood, and believes that women - not politicians or the government - should be in control of their own health decisions. President Obama knows that access to quality, affordable health care means a stronger American middle class.
"The Same" will air in Colorado, Nevada, Virginia, Ohio, Florida, Iowa.
