Pro-life groups condemned 2020 presidential candidate Joe Biden’s Tuesday vice presidential pick, Kamala Harris, calling Biden and Harris the “most pro-abortion presidential ticket in American history.”
The former vice president announced Tuesday that Harris would be running with him in his bid for the White House. Harris has a long history of advocating for increased abortion access and against pro-life policy: she has voted against abortion bills that protect the unborn after 20 weeks of pregnancy and voted againstprotecting babies born alive after failed abortions.
As a presidential candidate, Harris promised to codify Roe v. Wade, require judicial nominees to support Roe v. Wade, to repeal the Hyde Amendment, to require private insurers to cover abortion and contraception, to make abortion drugs and birth control available over the counter, to ban abstinence only sex ed, to preserve funding for Planned Parenthood, and much more. She also said she would not consider a running mate who opposed abortion rights.
