President Joe Biden prepares to speak at a campaign rally, Friday, June 28, 2024, in Raleigh, N.C. to lay out a clear vision regarding abortion rights in the face of growing restrictions and worsening medical care for women since the fall of Roe v. Wade, something his campaign sees as a major motivator for voters.
The president recovered a bit on Friday, telling supporters at a North Carolina rally:"Folks, for all his lies, we learned some important truths about Donald Trump last night. We learned he’s still proud to be the person that killed Roe v. Wade.” And he made false claims that Democratic-led states were passing legislation “where you can execute that baby after birth.” Infanticide is criminalized in every state, and no state has passed a law that allows killing a baby after birth.
“The choice between the two presidential tickets is crystal clear: Donald Trump represents an existential threat to women in America,” according to a joint statement Friday from multiple groups.
