President Biden promised he would veto a Republican abortion ban if they took back control of Congress in November. President Biden was speaking at a Democratic National Committee event to rally people to vote Democratic ahead of the midterms. Since Roe v. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court this past summer with three Trump appointed Justices on the Court, Democrats have been campaigning on the promise to codify the right to an abortion.
BIDEN: “If Republicans win control of Congress, abortion will be banned. By the way, it will be initially banned, but then if they win Congress, I will veto it. But think what's happening, they’re banning it in the case of, in case of rape and incest, in many states, no exceptions. And they're going to be trying to criminalize it nationwide. But if you give me two more Democratic Senators in the United States Senate, I promise you, I promise you we're going to codify Roe.”
