NEW: Bernie Again Says He “Believes In National Legislation” to Ban Abortion
July 10, 2024
Columbus, OH – Bernie Moreno said again this morning that “he still believes in national legislation” to ban abortion, which would overturn the will of Ohioans who voted overwhelmingly last year to protect abortion access.
Moreno has said he is “absolute pro-life, no exceptions,” is endorsed by anti-choice politicians like Senator Mike Lee who said that a national abortion ban is an “important part of… what we stand for” and campaigned last week behind closed doors with national abortion ban supporters.
Here’s What Ohioans Need To Know About Bernie Moreno’s Support For A National Abortion Ban:
- Bernie Moreno supports a national abortion ban that would overturn the will of Ohioans who voted overwhelmingly to protect abortion rights last year.
- Moreno said he is “100% pro-life with no exceptions” and that he is “absolute pro-life, no exceptions.”
- Moreno opposes protecting a woman’s right to access contraception, including birth control pills. Moreno opposes federal protections for IVF and called IVF a “non-issue” a week after the Alabama Supreme Court ruling that prompted clinics to halt IVF treatments.
- Moreno voted to ban abortion without exceptions for rape or incest in Ohio last year by voting against Issue 1.
- Moreno celebrated the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, calling it a “monumental victory.”
