“Extremists across our nation have proposed and passed abortion bans that criminalize doctors and make no exception for rape or incest,” Harris stated in a social media post. “They are trying to take women backwards but we won’t let them.”
Harris’s remarks underscore the administration’s commitment to safeguarding reproductive rights amidst a wave of restrictive laws that have sparked nationwide debate.
Critics argue that these measures disproportionately affect marginalized communities and endanger the health and safety of women seeking medical care.
The Vice President’s declaration signals a robust defense of women’s rights at the federal level, with the Biden administration poised to challenge these bans through legislative and judicial avenues.
