Kamala Harris Highlights "Trump Abortion Bans" Across U.S., Vows to Restore Roe v. Wade
Tuesday night's presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump focused heavily on abortion rights and the aftermath of the Supreme Court's 2022 Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade_. Trump repeated his false claim that Democrats support infanticide, and claimed that allowing individual states to set their own laws on abortion was an improvement. Harris highlighted the risk to pregnant people now navigating a patchwork of laws and restrictions in the U.S. and promised to restore protections for reproductive rights as president. "Kamala Harris was finally out there channeling the outrage and the profound sense of violation that many people across this country feel in the wake of the _Dobbs decision," says Amy Littlefield, the abortion access correspondent for _The Nation_.
