McMillan and Zipprich Announce Planned Parenthood Endorsement in Assembly Race

Candidates Tout Support for Women's Health Care

Today, Kevin McMillan and Ed Zipprich, Democratic candidates for the New Jersey Assembly (NJ-11), announced that they received the endorsement of the Planned Parenthood Action Fund of New Jersey. McMillan and Zipprich are running against Republican incumbents Mary Pat Angelini and Caroline Casagrande.

Angelini and Casagrande have repeatedly voted to allow funding cuts to women's health care and have prevented 80,000 women from gaining access to health care coverage across New Jersey, while McMillan and Zipprich support restoring nearly $7.5 million that has been cut out of budget and expanding health care coverage for women.

"Planned Parenthood provides vital services to women across New Jersey, and I am humbled by their endorsement," said McMillan. "I strongly believe that every woman deserves access to health care like cancer screenings and prenatal care, and as an Assemblyman I will always support fully funding these health care services."


"I am proud of the endorsement of Planned Parenthood," said Zipprich. "I will always stand up and protect access to women's health care, and I will not only fight to restore the cuts to the budget, but I will support expanding access to health care coverage for tens of thousands of women across New Jersey."
