FACT CHECK: National Reproductive Rights Leader Slams David Trone’s Desperate, Deceptive Attack Ads Against Rep. April McClain Delaney
GAITHERSBURG, MD — Today, Reproductive Freedom for All (formerly NARAL Pro-Choice America) President Mini Timmaraju, released a powerful video that dismantles a series of false attacks launched by billionaire and MAGA donor David Trone. Congresswoman April McClain Delaney is endorsed by Reproductive Freedom for All as well as Planned Parenthood Action Fund.
In the video, Timmaraju directly addresses Trone’s lies, setting the record straight on Representative McClain Delaney’s perfect record as a champion for abortion access and healthcare freedom, while calling out Trone’s campaign for taking “pretty wild liberties with the facts.”
“Even though David Trone’s campaign has been breathtakingly dishonest, he continues to sink to new lows,” said McClain Delaney Campaign Manager Nick London. “Voters are backing Congresswoman McClain Delaney because she is delivering for the district, while Trone is busy continuing his retribution tour.”
Setting the Record Straight on Rep. McClain Delaney’s Record:
As highlighted by the Mini Timmaraju,, Rep. April McClain Delaney has been an unwavering legislative leader in the fight to protect bodily autonomy:
-
A Perfect 100% Score: Rep. McClain Delaney earned a perfect 100% voting record on Reproductive Freedom for All’s Congressional Scorecard for both 2025 and 2026.
-
Federal Protections: She has proudly cosponsored critical federal legislation to enshrine the protections of Roe v. Wade into federal law and eliminate systemic barriers to reproductive healthcare.
-
The Truth Behind the Ad: The “hundreds of thousands” referenced in Trone’s ad were actually standard tuition payments and donations to her daughters’ Catholic school, alongside contributions to Catholic charities explicitly earmarked for humanitarian immigration advocacy.
In addition to Reproductive Freedom for All and Planned Parenthood Action, McClain Delaney has also secured the endorsements of all of Team Maryland. Governor Moore, Attorney General Brown, Lt. Governor Miller, Senators Van Hollen and Alsobrooks, Congressman Jamie Raskin, and the entire Maryland Democratic congressional delegation, as well as local leaders and unions across the district have endorsed Rep. McClain Delaney for reelection.
