Josh Eisen in 2024 NY Senate race
On Abortion:
I think there is room for pregnancy terminations
Eisen clarified that the Republican Party will not nominate someone who takes the positions that he took. "I was running on a pro-union platform. I don't believe that life begins at conception; I think there is room for pregnancy terminations, certainly
the Plan B pill. Legalizing marijuana, pro-union or the abortion positions are things that no Republican elected official can publicly talk about. For these reasons, I did not primary on the Republican line. "

take an Uber job," Eisen said. "Instead of advocating for people who borrowed money to work, she's advocating for the people who borrowed money to party and to go to school," Eisen said.
