Presidential debate: Biden discusses abortion rights

President Joe Biden blamed Donald Trump during the debate for the deluge of state abortion restrictions since the fall of Roe v. Wade. As president, Trump appointed three justices to the U.S. Supreme Court who helped form the majority that overturned the constitutional right to abortion — and he has taken credit for that during his campaign. Highlighting Trump’s connection to the overturning of Roe v. Wade and its impact on pregnant people across the U.S. has become a cornerstone of Biden’s campaign. Biden has also warned that a second Trump term could lead to nationwide abortion restrictions.
