WASHINGTON - Vowing to continue the fight against last month’s Supreme Court overruling of the 1973 decision in Roe v. Wade that made abortion legal nationwide, President Biden signed an executive order on Friday that would push back against Republican efforts to limit reproductive choice.
He also denounced those he described as "Republican extremists," who want not only to restrict abortion in individual states but also to enact a nationwide abortion ban. “This is not some imagined horror, it’s already happening,” Biden said from the White House.
He was flanked by Vice President Kamala Harris and Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, both of whom have, like him, condemned last month’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, which returned the power to regulate abortion entirely to states.
“This was not a decision driven by the Constitution," an impassioned Biden said, depicting the conservative majority’s decision in Dobbs as “an exercise of raw political power."

According to the White House, the executive order asks the federal health department to report back within 30 days on plans the White House would like to see put into action, including making abortion pills and contraception easier to access and to ensure that women seeking reproductive care in emergency rooms - including care that could result in pregnancy termination - are not turned away because of doctors’ concerns of legal action.

He’s a “uniter”, don’tcha know.
FJB and its Molech-loving devil worshippers.
Hey, I’ll bet a lot of devout Catholics like Joe and Nancy hobby is killing babies.
Extremists? He needs to look at how his own party has changed over the years. The new Democrat party makes JFK look more like Reagan. Heck ... even Clinton is conservative compared to these yahoos.
You guys don’t get this.
The Left NEVER quits.
While most of you folks are fighting over DeSantis or Trump,
the Dems and their activist groups are using state judges to stop or delay abortion trigger laws.
Make no mistake, they are ALREADY gutting the Dobbs decision.
I wonder how many Republicans will call him out.

Do you think Sniffer will leave office when he is kicked out?
“This is not some imagined horror, it’s already happening,” Biden said from the White House.
It’s not some imagined horror — and its already happened, Joe. Over 60 million babies killed since Roe v Wade. That’s a *real* horror.
So now Joke wants women to go to ERs if they have an unwanted pregnancy? If there’s a medical reason to terminate, the woman can use the hospital for that service just like now. But if she expects the ER doctor to kill her baby for no reason, that’ll be a hard no. 🤣
Jo Jo is as out of control as a Kenyan Bottle Rocket. There was a reason the Founding Fathers didn’t want people with severe dementia being elected President of the United States. Mail order or not, they shouldn’t be in the Oval Office.
