Planned Parenthood Action Fund is proud to endorse Derek Tran for Congress. He is a leader who understands that reproductive freedom is paramount and he will work tirelessly alongside Planned Parenthood Action Fund to enshrine reproductive rights into law. His opponent, Michelle Steel, has twice co-sponsored the Life at Conception Act, even with its disastrous consequences for sexual and reproductive health care, including for IVF treatments. Planned Parenthood Action Fund stands with Derek and looks forward to working with him when he is Congress."
