Rosie O'Donnell said women should form their own political party after a Democratic congressman said Democrats would not hold back party funds from candidates who oppose abortion.

New Mexico Representative and second-term Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chairman Ben Ray Luján said 'there is not a litmus test' for Democratic candidates in the upcoming 2018 midterm elections.

'As we look at candidates across the country, you need to make sure you have candidates that fit the district, that can win in these districts across America,' Luján told The Hill in an interview published Monday.

That includes candidates who do not support abortion rights.

Tuesday morning, comedian O'Donnell responded on Twitter that if Democrats do fund candidates who oppose abortion rights, women should leave the party.

'WOMEN SHOULD FORM OUR OWN PARTY IF DEMS DO THIS', she wrote.

However, Luján said he wants to cast a wide net for candidates as Democrats try to oust Republicans and take back a majority in the House.

'To pick up 24 [seats] and get to 218, that is the job. We’ll need a broad coalition to get that done,' Luján said.

'We are going to need all of that, we have to be a big family in order to win the House back.'

The issue of supporting candidates who oppose abortion rights has been an issue in the Democratic party.

Heath Mello, a Democratic mayoral candidate in Omaha, Nebraska, opposes abortion rights.

Mello's stance caused contention within the party earlier this year when Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders and DNC vice-chairman and Minnesota Representative Keith Ellison appeared at a rally to support him despite the candidate's opposition to abortion, The Hill reported.
