GOP Rep. Nancy Mace: Republicans will ‘lose huge’ over abortion if party continues ‘extreme’ path
of South Carolina slammed efforts by fellow Republicans to limit access to abortions, saying Sunday that it’s a losing position to stake out an ultra-conservative stance on a hot-button issue.
The Supreme Court on Friday allowed access to abortion drug mifepristone to continue as a legal case plays out, blocking a lower court ruling. “As Republicans, we need to read the room on this issue because the vast majority of folks are not in the extremes,” Ms. Mace said on ABC’s “This Week.” “We’re going to lose huge if we continue down this path of extremities.”describes herself as a constitutional pro-life conservative. A moderate who represents a battleground district, she argued that most Americans want a more middle-of-the-road abortion policy in the wake of federal protections being struck down by the Supreme Court last year.
“The vast majority of people want some sort of gestational limits. Not at nine months, but somewhere in the middle,” Ms. said. “They want exceptions for rape and incest. They want women to have access to birth control. These are all very common-sense positions that we can take and still be pro-life.”

Nancy Northup explains the abortion pill case that “shouldn’t have been”Center for Reproductive Rights’ President and CEO Nancy Northup is “hugely relieved” that the Supreme Court has blocked a lower court’s ruling that would’ve restricted access to the abortion pill mifepristone. But the case “should have been thrown out at the outset.” The Supreme Court’s ruling is temporary as the appeal heads back to the Fifth Circuit, where the case will be heard on May 17th. Because of how contentious and complicated the issue has become, regardless of the Fifth Circuit’s ruling, it will likely be appealed again and end up back at the Supreme Court at a later date. “We’re not out of the woods by any stretch of the imagination,” Northup says, and notes that “a lot of different actors” will come into this as the case will have big implications beyond the issue of abortion.
