Kellyanne Conway Urges GOP to Promote Contraception Ahead of 2024 Elections

Conway and allies argue that contraception advocacy could help Republicans win over dissatisfied Democrats, but some conservative women push back against the strategy.

• Kellyanne Conway, former counselor to President Trump, has warned Republicans that they need to promote contraception or risk defeat in the 2024 elections.
• Conway, along with lobbyist Susan Hirschmann and Independent Women’s Voice CEO Heather Higgins, plan to meet with GOP members and staff in the House and Senate to discuss this issue.
• They argue that meaningful action on contraception could help Republicans with their own base and with Democrats dissatisfied with President Joe Biden.
• Polling data commissioned by Independent Women’s Voice and conducted by KA Consulting, Conway’s firm, shows overwhelming public support for policies that make contraception cheaper and more available.
• However, some conservative women have pushed back against this strategy, arguing that increased access to birth control can lead to more unplanned pregnancies and abortions.
