Grimes Campaign: 'Alison Opposes Late-Term Abortions'

EMILY’s List, a PAC dedicated to electing women who support a right to abortion-on-demand, is one of Senate candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes’s top financial backers, according to the Washington Post. But Grimes, a Democrat from Kentucky, is being cagey about her stance on one of EMILY’s List’s top priorities: Stopping a bill that would ban most abortions after the fifth month of gestation.

When THE WEEKLY STANDARD asked the Grimes campaign how the candidate would vote on a federal 20-week abortion limit, Grimes campaign press secretary Charly Norton wrote in an email: “Alison opposes late-term abortions.”
