President Joe Biden pledged to defend a so-called right to abortion and reaffirmed his commitment to the widespread availability of the procedure in a Jan. 22 statement marking the anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 decision that legalized abortion nationwide.
“The constitutional right established in Roe v. Wade nearly 50 years ago today is under assault as never before,” reads the statement, which was co-signed by Vice President Kamala Harris. “It is a right we believe should be codified into law, and we pledge to defend it with every tool we possess.”
“We are deeply committed to protecting access to health care, including reproductive health care—and to ensuring that this country is not pushed backwards on women’s equality,” the statement continues.
The statement was released one day after tens of thousands of pro-life advocates gathered in Washington for the annual March for Life.
Biden and Harris condemned efforts by pro-life lawmakers to enact restrictions on abortion, saying that “in Texas, Mississippi, and many other states around the country, access to reproductive health care is under attack.”
“These state restrictions constrain the freedom of all women,” they wrote, adding that such restrictions are “particularly devastating for those who have fewer options and fewer resources, such as those in underserved communities, including communities of color and many in rural areas.”

Did he “pledge” or “vow?” I get the media speak confused.
50,000,000 abortion victims were not available for comment.
One evil, corrupt bastard.
“constitutional right established in Roe v. Wade”
So dumb a$# think about what you just said. What if a conservative SCOTUS ruled that the Second Amendment allows one to own RPG’s and Vulcan cannons? Would you just throw your hands in the air and say “The Supreme Court enshrined this as a constitutional right”?
Unconstitutional
No such right exists
Not a God given inalienable right
Your mother. She has been drugged and hypnotized by those who hate Life and the God who gives it. She will be congratulated for her “Courage” by those who have done the same. If there is no God, they have nothing to worry about. If there is, to quote the rabbi from Nazareth, “It would have been better for you that you had never been born!”
I hope he burns in hell.
His clan wants to kill their babies. Let them. Less for our children to fight.
You tell ‘em joey!
“hell”
He’s frail. About to appear before the Judge even with the best medical care. No wisdom.
