Planned Parenthood Action Fund released a new web ad attacking the GOP ticket as wrong for women Monday afternoon. 

The ad, which the group will be pushing through social media, shows clips of Mitt Romney saying he wants to “get rid of” Planned Parenthood and that Roe v. Wade should be overturned. The ad then shows Romney introducing his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, whose views on women’s reproductive rights are further to the right than Romney’s. 

“The Romney-Ryan agenda: end funding for Planned Parenthood’s basic health care,” a narrator says in the ad, running down a list that also includes ending “safe and legal abortion” and dismantling “the Medicare and Medicaid women and families count on.”

The narrator ends the ad with: “Romney-Ryan: Really out of touch, really wrong for women.”

So far the ad is online-only, but the group said it may be putting money behind it soon.
