WASHINGTON - Today, Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel released the following statement on Senate Democrats’ vote for the Abortion For All Act:
“Senate Democrats’ latest failed attempt to impose their radical late-term abortion agenda is another reminder of how extreme and out of touch they are. Americans overwhelmingly support commonsense pro-life protections and limits on abortion, but Democrats are doubling down on taxpayer-funded, unlimited abortion on demand up to the moment of birth. Voters will hold Biden and Democrats accountable for being radical, cruel, and anti-science come November.”
Background:
- Polling shows the majority of Americans support limits on abortion.
- 80 percent of Americans believe that third trimester abortions should be prohibited in most or all cases.
- According to a new poll from the RNC, independent voters resoundingly reject the Democrat Party’s position on abortion – only 16% of independent voters believe abortion should be allowed at any time and for any reason.
- Democrats’ radical abortion bill would strike down virtually all state abortion protections, leading to abortion on demand up to the moment of birth with virtually no limits.
- The United States is one of only seven nations that allows elective abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy, putting America in the same ranks as China and North Korea.
