Jodie Sweetin isn't afraid to ruffle a few feathers with her strong political beliefs.

The former Fuller House actress recently took part in a bold new political ad on Instagram, where she—along with some help from Jerry O'Connell, Jeff Ross, and more stars—took a comical approach to advocating for reproductive rights ahead of the upcoming election.

The ad featured a satirical look at the state of reproductive rights in the U.S., imagining a human-sized stork (played by Ross), delivering babies to anyone and everyone who doesn't want a child.

During her part in the ad, Sweetin, 42, played a mom and wife to O'Connell, congratulating her daughter on getting into college. But it wasn't long before Storky delivered her daughter a baby, putting her dreams of college to a screeching halt.

"You ain't gonna have time for college unless you're majoring in diaper rash and broken dreams," Storky (played by Ross) said in the clip.

Sweetin then pointed to her on-screen husband stating, "I told you we should have voted," while O'Connell replied, "This is all my fault."

"Hi, I'm Storky from the U.S. Baby Service. Ever since the government started sticking their beaks in your bedrooms my business is booming," Ross added in the clip.

The next scene featured a breakup conversation portrayed by Charlotte McKinney and Samm Levine when Storky showed up to deliver a baby as the pair was about to go their separate ways, calling the unsolicited delivery "courtesy of the House and the Senate."

"But I just broke up with this guy," McKinney's character protested, to which Storky replied, "You should have voted pro-choice when you had the chance."

The chaotic ad was dubbed by Ross as a "PUBLIC CERVIX ANNOUNCEMENT" in his Instagram caption, where he said, "Personally I don’t even think men should have a vote on this subject. What do you people think ?"

Many fans were in support of—and greatly amused by—the video, including one person who called the clip "hilarious."

"Thanks for doing your part for reproductive rights ???? in the silliest way possible," the same user added.

"how do we broadcast this nationally for the next two weeks," someone else wanted to know.

Others thought the video was a little "cringe" to say the least, as some users thought the politically-charged ad was "repulsive" and "ridiculous."

But one fan seemed to sum it up perfectly, writing in the comments, "This video ruffled some feathers."
