Washington D.C., Jul 8, 2022 / 12:53 pm President Joe Biden signed an executive order Friday aimed at protecting abortion access in response to the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
“This is a choice,” he said before signing the order July 8. “A moment to restore the rights that have been taken away from us, and the moment to protect our nation from an extremist agenda that is antithetical to everything we believe as Americans.”
He repeatedly referred to abortion as “health care” and called abortion drugs “medication.”
Biden, a Catholic, has repeatedly supported abortion in contrast with the Catholic Church’s teaching that human life must be respected and protected from the moment of conception.
The president signed the “Executive Order Protecting Access to Reproductive Health Care Services” at the White House in the presence of Vice President Kamala Harris, Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) Xavier Becerra, and U.S. Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco.
In the order, Biden states his administration’s policy to support “women's right to choose” as “essential to justice, equality, and our health, safety, and progress as a Nation.”
The order focuses on four general areas, according to a White House fact sheet: access to “reproductive health care services”; patients’ privacy and access to information; the security of patients, providers, and clinics; and the coordination of federal efforts to protect “reproductive rights and access to health care.”

I really do not get why people constantly reelect someone who is obviously corrupt. Probably the worst example was Ted Kennedy who incredibly was reelected for FIFTY years even after he allowed a woman to drown by refusing to call for help. Really makes me wonder if elections are legit in these states.
