What I am talking about are main politicians or higher ups in the party.

Quote:Cuellar opposes abortion.[3] He expressed concerns that the Senate health care bill allowed federal funding for abortion. He has voted for a ban on abortion after week 20.[56] On March 21, 2010, Cuellar voted for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which passed the House by a vote of 219–212.[57] In 2021, he was the only Democrat to vote against the Women's Health Protection Act, which aims to preserve access to abortion nationwide. The Act was proposed in response to the Texas Heartbeat Act which bans abortion after 6 weeks in Texas.[58]

As a voter I wouldn't use that one issue to decide on someone. I am anti-abortion but pro-choice. I'd prefer my representatives look at way to curb abortion with education and availability of better contraceptives, but my area has turned very red and the only thing they seem to care about his ending abortion rights.
