Abortion Rights News

Abortion,Roe V. Wade,Donald Trump

Susan B. Glasser on the Supreme Court’s Dobbs ruling, the overturning of Roe v. Wade, the restrictive abortion laws in Florida and Arizona, and how these will affect Donald Trump in the 2024 Presidential election.

On Monday, in a video meant to explain his post-Roe position, Trump repeated this claim. “I was proudly the person responsible,” he said. The problem for Trump is that this is a losing position with voters—millions of whom have gone to the polls, in red states such as Kansas and in battlegrounds such as Michigan, to keep abortion legal in the wake of the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision in Dobbs v. Jackson, which allows individual states to set abortion policy.

“That’ll be straightened out, and as you know it’s all about states’ rights,” he said. But, by Wednesday, the Republican leaders in the Arizona state legislature had refused to allow a measure repealing the law to come to a vote. Kari Lake, the Trumpist Republican running for Senate in Arizona, tried to repudiate the Civil War-era law, only to have it pointed out that she had called it a “great law” just two years ago and demanded it remain on the books.
