Joe Biden Hires Radical Abortion Activist as Top Campaign Staffer

Joe Biden is an ardent abortion supporter so it’s no surprise that he has hired a radical abortion activist as one of his top campaign staffers in the state of Arizona.

Biden has hired Andrew Piatt, who served as campaign manager for pro-abortion Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, will be the campaign’s senior advisor. And Biden hired Jessica Mejía, who was the state director in California for the Biden campaign during the primary, will now head his campaign in Arizona.

Mejía is a radical abortion activist who worked for Emily’s List, a pro-abortion organization that only endorses candidates who support killing babies in abortions up to birth and forcing Americans to fund abortions with their tax dollars.

Earlier this week, Biden received the endorcement of the Planned Parenthood abortion business today and he promoted the abortion giant afterwards, saying he would do everything possible as president to promote their pro-abortion agenda.

As LifeNews resorted, the Planned Parenthood abortion chain, which is responsible for killing hundreds of thousands of babies in abortion, says it supports Biden and will spend millions of dollars support him over pro-life President Donald Trump. In turn, Biden promised he would do their bidding in the White House.

Calling the destruction of human beings in abortion “health care,” Biden said in a new video: “It’s a simple proposition, health care is a right not dependent on race, gender, income, or zip code. As president I’m going to do everything in my power to expand access to quality affordable health care for women.”

“We will protect women’s constitutional right to choose, and I am proud to stand with you in this fight,” Biden added, using another euphemism for killing babies in abortions.

Biden thinks that killing babies in abortions is a right and that abortions should be funded in every state with federal taxpayer dollars. Although he euphemistically calls abortion health care, at the time he endorsed forcing taxpayer to fund abortions last year, Biden said: “If I believe health care is a right, as I do, I can no longer support an amendment that makes that right dependent on someone’s ZIP code.”

Biden has a strong pro-abortion voting record that goes back for many years, and he supported President Barack Obama’s leadership as the most pro-abortion president in U.S. history. What’s more, pro-abortion movement leaders say they “trust” Biden to protect abortion on demand. As the vice president, he supported the administration’s pro-abortion policies, including Obamacare, which forced religious employers to pay for drugs that may cause abortions.

From 2001 to 2008, Biden’s voting record on pro-life issues was close to zero, according to the National Right to Life Committee. In 2005, for example, he voted against the Mexico City Policy, which prohibits funding to overseas groups that promote and/or perform abortions. He also voted repeatedly to require that military service members’ abortions be covered by taxpayer dollars.

To show how far Biden has come toward the pro-abortion view, he once likened an abortion to an operation — as if taking the life of a baby before birth is somehow beneficial in the same manner as a patient’s operation.

Biden said: “Maybe where Romney is most sketchy is on women’s rights. I got a daughter and lost a daughter. I’ve got four granddaughters and Barack has two daughters. And this is to our core. Our daughters and our granddaughters are entitled to every single solitary operation, every single solitary opportunity!”

Meanwhile, President Trump has the support of pro-life groups, which represent the majority of Americans on abortion.
