RNC Statement on Biden's Pro-Abortion Event in D.C.

WASHINGTON – Today, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel released the following statement on Biden’s pro-abortion event in D.C.:

“Joe Biden and the Democrats' extreme late-term abortion agenda is completely out of touch with Americans. Democrats are pushing a zero-restrictions agenda that allows abortion up to the point of birth, which puts us in a global category alongside countries like China and North Korea. Republicans must go on offense on this issue, expose their Democrat opponents’ extremism, and continue to fight for commonsense pro-life protections that we know Americans firmly support."

Background:

• Read RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel’s op-ed on the anniversary of the Dobbs decision.
• Last cycle, the RNC commissioned a national poll on the issue, which was shared with campaigns, consultants, and our sister committees last summer.
  • Polling shows that when the choice is between a Democrat who wants zero abortion restrictions and a Republican who supports protecting life at 15 weeks, Republicans win by 22 points.
  • Seventy-two percent of voters – including 60% of Democrats – support protecting unborn children after 15 weeks.
