Ron DeSantis (who dropped from the race) and former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley — would drastically hinder abortion rights, Whitmer told journalist Margaret Brennan on CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday that Biden ought to converse on abortion extra continuously.
“I think it would be good if he did,” the governor, who’s additionally a co-chair of Biden’s reelection bid, mentioned. “I know that one tenet of his belief system is that women and only women, with their families, and healthcare professionals are the ones who know what decision is right for them. And that he is fighting and going to continue to fight to make sure that that is squarely the ability of an American woman to make that decision.”
“I think people want to know that this is a president that is fighting,” she continued. “And I think he has said that, to use maybe more, you know, blunt language, maybe that would be helpful.”
Whitmer’s remarks align with Biden’s marketing campaign, which is ready to enter full swing this week, placing the problem of abortion on the forefront, CNN reported. The marketing campaign can even concentrate on highlighting private tales about abortion entry.
On Sunday, the Biden marketing campaign launched a harrowing advert referred to as “Forced,” which particulars the life-threatening being pregnant a Texas OB-GYN was involuntarily required to endure due to the autumn of Roe v. Wade.
“In Texas you are forced to carry that pregnancy, and that is because of Donald Trump overturning Roe v. Wade,” Dr. Austin Dennard, the OB-GYN, mentioned within the advert. “The choice was completely taken away. I was to continue my pregnancy, putting my life at risk.”
“We need leaders that will protect our rights and not take them away and that’s Joe Biden and Kamala Harris,” she added.
