TL;DR Summary

South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, who recently launched a presidential exploratory committee, stated that he would sign the "most conservative pro-life legislation" that Congress can pass if he were president. He expressed support for a six-week federal ban on abortion, a more extreme position than he had previously taken. Scott has repeatedly co-sponsored legislation in Congress to ban abortions after 20 weeks and has also supported bills that would deem life begins at conception, effectively outlawing all abortions. Republicans are grappling with how far to go in limiting abortions following the Supreme Court's ruling last year overturning Roe v. Wade.
