The Joe Biden campaign plans to put abortion “at the forefront of its reelection campaign,” vowing to “restore” Roe v. Wade and the “reproductive freedom” to kill unborn children with few or no restrictions.
Pro-abortion television and digital ads are planned for around January 22nd, the anniversary the Roe‘s ruling in 1973. Rallies featuring the President, the Vice President, and their spouses are also planned.
“Trump directly paved the way for Republican extremists across the country to enact draconian bans that are hurting women and threatening doctors,” said Biden-Harris campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez, acknowledging Trump should be credited for the pro-life advances since Roe v. Wade was overturned. Within six months of Roe being overturned, an estimated 32,000 babies’ lives had been saved by Trump and the Supreme Court Justices’ actions.
Trump has long argued that Democrats, rather than Republicans, are the extremists on abortion, condemning state lawmakers for having “cheered with delight upon the passage of legislation that would allow a baby to be ripped from the mother’s womb moments before birth” during one of his State of the Union speeches.
Washington D.C., Colorado, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, and Vermont, all run by Democrats, allow abortion up to birth, along with Republican-run Alaska.
