The Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America group expressed deep disappointment in former President Trump’s stance to leave abortion laws to the states. The group’s president, Marjorie Dannenfelser, argued that unborn children and their mothers deserve national protections. She warned that ceding the issue to the states could allow Democrats to enact legislation mandating abortion throughout all nine months of pregnancy.
Trump stated that abortion laws should be determined by the states and did not take a position on a federal abortion ban. He emphasized that the decision should reflect the will of the people, their hearts, and in many cases, their religion or faith.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) disagreed with Trump’s stance, arguing that the pro-life movement has always been about the wellbeing of the unborn child, not geography. He advocated for a national minimum standard limiting abortion at fifteen weeks, with exceptions for rape, incest, and life of the mother. He pointed out that 47 of 50 European countries have national limits on abortions between 12 and 15 weeks.
