A powerful pro-life group is scolding former President Donald Trump for telling a major newspaper that abortion access is an issue that should be decided at the state level.
A powerful pro-life group is scolding former President
The Trump team was referring to the “Dobbs” decision that overturned the nationwide right to abortion in Roe v. Wade and ushered in a series of new restrictions in red states. “Saying that the issue should only be decided at the states is an endorsement of abortion up until the moment of birth, even brutal late-term abortions in states like California, Illinois, New York and New Jersey,” she said.
“The Supreme Court made clear in its decision that it was returning the issue to the people to decide through their elected representatives in the states and in Congress,” she said. “Holding to the position that it is exclusively up to the states is an abdication of responsibility by anyone elected to federal office.”Democrats are furious over abortion restrictions but see the issue as a useful political cudgel against the GOP.
