Leading Pro-Life Group reacts to Trump abortion stance, encourages GOP to be ‘courageous,’ honest with voters on issue

Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser disagrees and was disappointed with recent statement made by former President Donald Trump on his position regarding states deciding abortion legislation. Dannenfelser remains hopeful that Trump will support a federal minimum standard on abortion and encourages Republicans running for office to be upfront with voters about current abortion laws, what their choices are, and what incrementalism looks like. “The history of the United States human rights law has been based on basically people who are courageous enough to embrace a strong consensus at that point without getting every single thing that they wanted because they were so eloquent [in their] contrast between where they wanted to be and where their opponent wanted to be,” Dannenfelser explains. “I think [Virginia Governor] Glenn Youngkin was very eloquent. I think he did a fantastic job.”
