Trump Unequivocally States He Would Veto National Abortion Ban
Oct 2, 2024, 02:09 AM
Former President Donald Trump has stated unequivocally that he would veto any national abortion ban if it were passed by Congress. This statement marks a shift from his previous stance where he avoided directly addressing whether he would veto such legislation. Trump's comments come in the wake of the vice-presidential debate where abortion was a key topic. Trump emphasized that decisions on abortion should be left to individual states and reiterated his opposition to a federal ban. Shortly after the debate, Trump posted a long, all-caps statement pushing back on claims he would support a nationwide abortion ban.
