President Joe Biden's options for protecting abortion rights in the wake of the latest Supreme Court ruling remain extremely limited, and a number of Democratic allies believe he"desperately" hopes that Congress might pass legislation codifying Roe v. Wade.
"A woman’s healthcare choices should be between her, her family, and her doctor," she said in a statement."I’ve always supported women’s access to healthcare, and I’ll continue working with anyone to protect women’s ability to make decisions about their futures." "The Senate just came together and reached a bipartisan agreement addressing gun violence, something that hasn't been done in nearly three decades," that person said."There's no reason they won't do so again on this issue, especially when it impacts the civil liberties of more than half the country. This is no time for playing party politics."
"President Biden is desperately calling for something that will not happen before the midterms," that person said."It's absolutely paramount voters put Roe on the ballot this year. From voting rights to clean energy, the current Congress has made it clear they're incapable of acting on the issues voters care about, and now women's lives are literally at stake. Something needs to be done.
