Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has introduced a bill to create a federal ban on abortions at 15 weeks.
Graham told reporters that he has not spoken to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., about the bill. McConnell himself has largely avoided committing to any discussion of a federal abortion ban. In the days following the Supreme Court decision to overturnMcConnell explicitly downplayed the chances of such a ban ever being enacted."So I think the democratic process on this issue is going to work out at the state level.
"Republicans in Congress are focused on taking rights away from millions of women," Jean-Pierre said."The President and Vice President are fighting for progress, while Republicans are fighting to take us back." Democrats have warned for months that Republicans would move ahead with a federal abortion ban if they win back control in Washington--a message that has helped drive an increase in voter registration among women in several states.
The dynamic is particularly difficult for Republican candidates in places that aren't GOP strongholds
