On the same day Florida’s six-week abortion ban took effect, Vice President Kamala Harris visited Jacksonville to blast
In his Time magazine interview, Donald Trump “said states have the right to monitor pregnant women to enforce these bans, and states have the right to punish pregnant women for seeking out abortion care.”Vice President Kamala Harris speaks about the implementation of Florida 's abortion ban May 1, 2024, in Jacksonville, Fla.
Then, Cortellessa asked,"Do you think states should monitor women's pregnancies so they can know if they've gotten an abortion after the ban?"As Trump began talking about Roe v. Wade, the legal precedent that allowed federal abortion access until the U.S. Supreme Court overturned it in 2022, Cortellessa jumped in, mentioning states prosecuting women who received illegal abortions and asking Trump if he was comfortable with that.:"The states are going to say.
President Joe Biden and Harris have long said that Trump supports punishing women for getting abortions, a claim we previously rated. In a 2016 MSNBC town hall, host Chris Matthews asked about penalties for abortion, and Trump said there has to be"some form of punishment" for women. But Trump retracted the comment that same day, amid criticism, and issued a statement that said he meant that physicians should be held legally responsible, not women.
“It's very misleading when says used to be at 9%. This is compounding. It’s not like it went down from 9% to 3%. This is building month after month. The better way to think about it is that it’s 18%, 19% over the last three years."In his Time magazine interview, Donald Trump “said states have the right to monitor pregnant women to enforce these bans, and states have the right to punish pregnant women for seeking out abortion care.
