President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris will share the stage on Tuesday in Virginia as they campaign for abortion rights, a top issue for Democrats in an election expected to feature a rematch with Donald Trump, the former Republican president.
Biden and Harris will be joined by their spouses, first lady Jill Biden and second gentleman Doug Emhoff. It’s the first time the four of them have appeared together since the campaign began, a reflection of the importance that Democrats are putting on abortion this year.
Harris was in Wisconsin in Monday to mark the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the U.S. Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion nationwide. The decision was overturned two years ago, and Trump helped pave the way by nominating three conservative justices to the court during his term. He recently said he was “proud” of his role.
You can tell election season has finally kicked off when they dust off womens rights and start campaigning on protecting them again. Until election day when they nearly fold them back up and place them back into the bag of empty promises.
Holding someone’s rights hostage until election season means they never had any interest in protecting rights, but in protecting their jobs.
Just like 2008, even if we elect them into a supermajority with a sweeping mandate, suddenly there will be other priorities. In that case, it was shoveling some 30mil Americans into the pockets of insurance companies. This time? Who knows, perhaps more genocide?
Don’t forget record oil production and promises of cannabis legalization seemingly out of left field.
Oh I ‘memba. This type of stuff where the president doesn’t even need Congress and can deliver for the people single-handedly, but won’t, is especially infuriating.
Exactly the same way he can cut off money and weapons to Israel without Congress
The public option was killed by one Senator after another died unexpectedly.
Definitely more genocide
