Where does Kamala Harris stand on abortion?
The democratic candidate has long been a massive champion of reproductive rights.
Following the US Supreme Court’s decision in 2022 to strike down Roe vs. Wade, which had for decades preserved the constitutional right to an abortion, she became the Biden administration’s most significant voice calling on Congress to pass a new law ensuring access to the procedure for women across the nation.
The topic was a winning issue for Democrats in the 2022 ballot box for the midterm elections and following off-year elections. As an older Catholic man who in the past supported abortion rules, Biden was often seen as an awkward messenger on this issue.
But, democrats believe Kamala, who stands to be the first female president if elected, could be a leader on the issue heading into polling day.
