Vice President Kamala Harris announced that President Biden will sign a presidential memorandum directing some of his Cabinet members to recommend actions to protect doctors and patients who want to access abortion pills.
In a direct challenge to Republicans, Vice President Kamala Harris traveled to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ home turf on Sunday to proclaim her party’s commitment to restoring abortion rights for every American.
In Florida, where the state Supreme Court is reviewing a legal challenge to the 15-week abortion ban, antiabortion activists are pushing for further restrictions. Florida abortion providers say they have seen more patients from states such as Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi, all of which have stricter bans.
Democrats view abortion as a pivotal issue heading into 2024 after it lifted the party in key swing states and helped to blunt what some analysts expected to be a red wave in November’s midterm elections. Antiabortion activists descended on Washington on Friday for the annual March for Life to celebrate victory in their decades-long fight to overturn federal abortion protections. The movement needs to plan “the next steps in a post-Roe era,” House Majority Leader Steve Scalise told the rally.
Though President Biden has taken some executive action to protect reproductive rights, the Supreme Court decision on Roe and Republican control of the House of Representatives have left the administration with few options.
