Here’s Where Republican Presidential Candidates Stand on Abortion

Katherine Hamilton 27 Aug 2023

More than a year after the Supreme Court handed down its Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, Republican presidential candidates are communicating to voters how they would handle the issue of abortion moving forward.

Among Republicans, how the pro-life movement should proceed is a point of contention. Some view abortion as a “losing issue,” and point to GOP failures in the 2022 midterms, successful pro-abortion ballot initiatives, and the spending power of angry Democrats and the abortion lobby moving into 2024.

Democrats have already indicated they will use what they view as “anti-abortion extremism” as a way to paint their Republican opponents as out-of-step with voters, especially women.

Others, as well as national pro-life organizations, view federal legislation as the next step in a larger plan to limit abortions in the United States, and look at the reelection of pro-life governors and the passage (pre and post-Dobbs) of pro-life legislation in 25 states as evidence of progress to come.

This may be a deciding issue for voters.  Abortion was returned back to the states and should be left there.  There should NEVER be a national or federal ruling.  I firmly believe that 15 weeks is much too late - 10 weeks at the maximum.  A woman should realize by then that she is pregnant and needs to make a decision.


BTW I continue to support PreBorn! - many woman that they reach who actually see their baby on an ultrasound choose life!

PreBorn! is a dedicated non-profit, pro-life organization that supports life-affirming Pregnancy Clinics in their mission
to reach women considering abortion, particularly in areas with high abortion rates.

This is achieved through digital marketing strategies that are designed to connect with these women, offering them free
ultrasounds and support, as well as providing Pregnancy Clinics with vital grants for state-of-the-art ultrasound machines, evangelism training, and additional resources. All services provided to expectant mothers within the PreBorn!
Pregnancy Network are offered at no cost, emphasizing our commitment to life.


From January - June of 2023, their impact is evident; 29,134 babies have been saved.  35,788 abortion-mined women have been served.

I agree @libertbele. This issue should be left to the states.

The only advantage I can see to Federal  intervention from the Pubs to set limits, would be to circumvent the Dems from passing Roe like legislation.

And the correct answer is:

The federal government does not have a dog in the hunt! Period!

I have a different stance than many, based in whether the government at any level can sanction killing someone without Just Cause or Due Process for a crime... In all other cases, it is the duty of this nation to protect life, as the very first enumerated right.

In that I find a federal and Constitutional cause.

Agreed. For that matter, the federal government should keep its nose out of a lot of things.

:amen: Much of what they are currently doing is patently unconstitutional.
