The Biden-Harris marketing campaign known as out the proposed plan to have Donald Trump unilaterally impose a nationwide abortion ban if he returns to the White Home.

NOTUS reported on the conservative plan:

Anti-abortion activists have their eyes on a much bigger prize: If former President Donald Trump wins a second time period within the White Home, they hope and count on that he’ll successfully ban abortions all through america by prohibiting the cargo not simply of abortion medication, however any instruments docs might use to induce an abortion.

They’re pinning their hopes on the Comstock Act, a sequence of legal guidelines enacted in 1873 that prohibit the cargo of “every article or thing designed, adapted or intended for producing abortion.” The regulation was primarily unenforceable in the course of the Roe period, however a federal choose in Texas dominated in 2023 that the Comstock Act prohibits the cargo of the 2 medication utilized in greater than half of all abortions at present.

Such an enforcement of Comstock would ban something used to carry out an abortion. Tools and medicine would now not be shipped by means of the mail. Trump might unilaterally impose a nationwide abortion ban with out Congress or the courts doing a factor.

Biden marketing campaign spokesperson Shea Necheles responded in a press release supplied to PoliticusUSA, “Every day, Donald Trump and his allies are clearly laying out their dangerous plan to inflict more medical chaos and cruelty on women across this country. Overturning Roe wasn’t enough; now they are running to ban abortion nationwide, with or without Congress. But voters have also been clear: they will not stand for Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans’ attacks on their reproductive rights. This November will be no different.”

The far-right is in search of methods to sidestep democracy to implement their unpopular agenda. When a Republican says they received’t vote for a nationwide abortion ban what they’re leaving out is that they won’t should as a result of Donald Trump will do it for them.

Democracy and primary human rights are on the poll in 2024 and the American individuals have to vote accordingly.
