She discussed her background, her professional background, and her opinions about Donald Trump’s track record and his potential actions if he were elected.
Would Trump outlaw abortion nationwide?
CLAIM: “A nationwide abortion ban would be enacted” by Trump.
VERDICT: There is deception here. Trump has stated that he thinks the matter should be left to individual states and that he would not sign a national abortion ban.
Three conservative justices whom Trump appointed to the Supreme Court during his administration voted to overrule Roe v. Wade.
Before it was repealed in June 2022, the Roe v. Wade decision preserved the federal constitution’s right to an abortion for almost 50 years.
As a result of Roe v. Wade, abortion became illegal in 22 states or was only permitted earlier in pregnancy. Ten of these states even do not allow abortions in cases of rape or incest. These fourteen states forbid abortions almost entirely.
