Biden’s top priority for a second term: restoring abortion rights - eviltoast
“It is unfathomable that women today wake up in a country with less rights than their ancestors had years ago,” Biden's deputy campaign manager said.

“The president has been adamant that we need to restore Roe. It is unfathomable that women today wake up in a country with less rights than their ancestors had years ago,” Fulks said.

Biden has been poised to run on what has been described as the strongest abortion rights platform of any general election candidate as he and his allies look to notch a victory in the first presidential election since Roe v. Wade was overturned in 2022.

Last month, Biden seized on a case in Texas, where a woman, Kate Cox, was denied an abortion despite the risk to her life posed by her pregnancy.

“No woman should be forced to go to court or flee her home state just to receive the health care she needs,” Biden said of the case. “But that is exactly what happened in Texas thanks to Republican elected officials, and it is simply outrageous. This should never happen in America, period.”

    Do you honestly think everyone that criticizes Biden won’t vote for him?

    Jill Stein would have gotten second place if that was true. Most of the votes moderates get are from people that hate them.

      You keep trying to push this narrative that only the far left has any actually significant popularity, like mainstream dem success is all a part of some grand conspiracy or something. But I think the reason most of the dem party in the House and Senate is more moderate, is because there are still a huge number of moderate voters.

      It’s odd that you’re so reluctant to acknowledge that the dem party is a party of diversity, not some monolith of purity.
