"GOP Strategists Encourage Congressional Candidates to Oppose National Abortion Ban"

GOP strategists are advising Republican congressional candidates to campaign against a national abortion ban in order to win competitive races next year. The National Republican Senatorial Committee is encouraging candidates to clearly state their opposition to a national abortion ban and their support for reasonable limits on late-term abortions with exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother. Republicans are defending a slim majority in the House and are looking to recapture the Senate in 2024. Democrats argue that GOP candidates are being held accountable for their positions, while Republicans believe they can neutralize the weakness by presenting their view as reasonable.
