The Battle Over Abortion Rights Continues: Biden's Executive Order vs Conservative Push for National Ban.
President Biden warned that Republicans seeking a nationwide ban on abortion won’t stop there as he urged supporters to channel their outrage into mobilizing votes for Democrats in 2024. Just a mile from where Biden rallied abortion rights supporters, the Faith & Freedom Coalition was holding its annual conference, and Vice President Mike Pence urged his rivals for the Republican presidential nomination to support a 15-week federal abortion ban — at minimum. Biden issued an executive order seeking to bolster access to contraception and picked up a trio of top-level endorsements at the rally with Vice President Kamala Harris, first lady Jill Biden and Harris’ husband, Doug Emhoff.
