Republican Candidates Clash Over Abortion Stance in Heated Debate
TL;DR
Former Gov. Nikki Haley called for civility in the abortion debate and stated that she would only sign an abortion bill that can pass through Congress. She refused to commit to a specific abortion ban and emphasized the need to avoid dividing America over the issue. Haley pointed out that a 15-week ban bill introduced by Sen. Lindsey Graham last year did not receive enough support. Republicans have been losing elections where abortion has been a dominant issue since the Supreme Court overturned the Roe v. Wade decision.
