DCCC Launches New Billboard On Yesli Vega’s Comments Doubting Women Get Pregnant from Rape

Today, the DCCC announced a new billboard in VA-07 to bring attention to Yesli Vega’s dangerous, false claim that victims of rape are less likely to get pregnant — the first of many efforts from now until November to remind voters that Vega is wildly out-of-touch with Virginians.

The billboard sits in a high-traffic area of Stafford County, where it will serve as a reminder to Virginia voters that Yesli Vega’s record on reproductive rights isn’t just extreme — it’s downright wrong.

“Yesli Vega’s dangerous, ignorant claim that victims of rape are less likely to become pregnant is completely disqualifying,” said DCCC spokesperson Monica Robinson. “We won’t let voters forget. Yesli Vega will have to answer for her draconian attacks on reproductive rights from now until November.”
