Rep. Maxine Waters dodges question on controversial abortion procedure

Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters dodges Fox News Digital's question about whether she would support restrictions on third-trimester abortion procedures.

Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., dodged a question Wednesday at the Democratic National Convention from Fox News Digital about whether she'd support restrictions for late-term abortions, as abortion remains a key platform issue for the party. 'Congresswoman, would you support restrictions for late-term abortions?' Fox News Digital asked Waters, who endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris on day one of the DNC. Waters can be seen on video turning away and ignoring the question.

Abortion has been a central issue of the Democratic Party's 2024 re-election bid with Harris and Gov. Tim Walz at the top of the ticket, as each night speakers have taken turns calling for expanded federal abortion access. Late-term abortions, which typically occur in the third-trimester, have been an issue often evaded by Democratic lawmakers.
