House Dem. Caucus Chair Hakeem Jeffries (NY) calls out Sen. Graham’s “extreme” 15-week nationwide abortion ban proposal. Just yesterday, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) introduced a 15 week nationwide abortion ban, seeming to act without the support of the GOP. The bill is facing immense backlash.
“It's extreme if your top agenda is a nationwide ban on abortion. We're not making it up. Lindsey Graham just introduced the bill. And that bill would leave in place extreme bans that states have enacted all across the country and then undermine the freedom of women to make their own reproductive health Care decisions in other states like California, New York, or the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and beyond. It would undermine it in Kansas, which just rejected the worldview of extreme Maga Republicans. And Lindsey Graham and House Republicans could care less because that's their vision. Criminalize abortion care, impose a nationwide ban. That's extreme.”
