Karine Jean-Pierre on SCOTUS: Abortion, Worker’s Rights, Same-Sex Marriage, LGBTQ Rights ‘Could Be Gone’

‘Everything that we have worked so hard for now could be gone’

RUSH EXCERPT:

JEAN-PIERRE: "I think it’s getting out the vote because we are — you already see a momentum already with the Democratic Party and just the base. And this is a base election when you think about mid-terms. I think this is one more thing, I have to say to be honest, the SCOTUS pick has not been something that has ginned up the base, it’s been an electoral issue for sure for Republicans. So we really have to put that out there as a party as candidates are out there and make sure that folks are aware that everything is at stake when you’re looking at the SCOTUS pick, everything that we worked for for decades is on stake, abortion, working — worker’s rights, everything, same-sex marriage, LGBTQ rights, everything that we have worked so hard for now could be gone."
