Key takeaways:
- Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America threatened to withhold its support from former President Donald Trump if he does not change his public stance on abortion rights.
- The group called his position “morally indefensible” and said it was an “inaccurate reading” of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case.
- The exchange between the group and the former president highlights the ongoing challenge Republicans face with abortion rights, and the disapproval of his position on abortion rights could be a major blow to his political future.
A leading anti-abortion group has expressed their disapproval of former President Donald Trump’s suggestion to leave the question of abortion rights to the states. Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, an organization that boosts anti-abortion politicians, threatened to withhold its support from the former president if he does not change his public stance on the issue.
The group, Susan B. Anthony List, called his position “morally indefensible” and said it was an “inaccurate reading” of the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization case, which was a major victory for the anti-abortion movement last year.
The exchange between the group and the former president highlights the ongoing challenge Republicans face with abortion rights. While the conservative movement is eager to stamp out the practice nationally, the public is largely resistant to further restrictions.
The Susan B. Anthony List has been a major supporter of the former president, and their disapproval of his position on abortion rights could be a major blow to his political future. It remains to be seen if the former president will change his stance on the issue or if he will continue to face criticism from the anti-abortion movement.
