Maybe he forgot he has a voting record?

When asked to explain his stance on women's rights at the candidate's forum in Newmarket on Tuesday, Adam Schroadter said "I am in favor of a woman's right to decide what she wants to do with her body, if that's how you're coining it."

His record says otherwise:
  • Adam voted for removing comprehensive preventive health services for women, such as contraception, from benefits expected to be covered by insurance companies. (HR29, Roll Call #103, 2/22/2012)
  • Adam voted for allowing any employer to deny coverage for contraception based on the employer's personal beliefs. (HB1546, Roll Call #117, 3/7/2012)
  • Adam voted for defunding Planned Parenthood of Northern New England. (HCR41, Roll Call #123, 3/7/2012)
  • Adam voted for purposefully obstructing a woman from receiving a legal abortion and forcing doctors to provide false and inaccurate information to patients, such as stating that abortions cause breast cancer. (HB1659, Roll Call #148, 3/14/2012)
  • Adam voted for making it illegal for a woman to receive an abortion after 20 weeks. (HB1660, Roll Call #214, 3/29/2012)
  • Adam voted for adding a 24-hour waiting period for abortions to a bill that otherwise addressed research and development tax credits for businesses. (SB295, Roll Call #249, 5/15/2012) 
  • Adam voted for prosecuting individuals who knowingly or unknowingly caused the death of a fetus starting at eight weeks. Medical experts believe that approximately one out of four pregnancies ends in miscarriage by the end of 8 weeks; under this law women are unfairly targeted without any basis in sound medical science. (HB217, Roll Call #10, 1/4/2012)
  • Governor's Lynch vetoed a bill that would ban abortion even when a woman's health is in jeopardy. Adam voted for overriding that veto in an attempt to establish this controversial law. (HB1679, Roll Call #303, 6/27/2012)
  • Adam voted for overriding Governor Lynch's veto of a bill that makes it difficult for New Hampshire residents to obtain fertility treatments and unreasonably restricts a woman's rights during pregnancy. (HB217, Roll Call #311, 6/27/2012)  
I know what he said, but this is how he voted. How will YOU vote on November 4th?
