In a strategic shift following the post-Roe v. Wade political landscape, many Republican candidates in the U.S. House races are adopting more nuanced stances on abortion and women's reproductive rights. This change involves distancing themselves from extreme anti-abortion views and presenting personal narratives that emphasize support for women's health care. For instance, GOP Rep. Mark Lawler from New York states, "There can be no place for extremism in women's health care," while Rep. Michelle Steel shares her IVF journey to advocate for women's access to reproductive treatments. This new approach aims to mitigate potential electoral losses and maintain GOP control of the House, with backing from the House Republicans' campaign arm recognizing the importance of reproductive issues for voters. Critics, including former NARAL president Ilyse Hogue, point out that the GOP has long been aware of their misalignment with public sentiment on reproductive rights. As election day approaches, Democrats are poised to leverage Republican voting records to frame them as extreme on this issue.
