What could happen to abortion access under Trump

Get the Full StoryThe president-elect has claimed he will veto a federal abortion ban. But that s not the only way Trump could effectively block abortion access across the U.S.

In the lead up to the election, Donald Trump would not directly answer questions about his plans for enacting a federal abortion ban, despite repeated inquiries in press interviews. But in August, JD Vance claimed that Trump had explicitly stated that he would veto a federal abortion ban that was passed by Congress. Trump was quick to note that the running mates had not talked about the issue but not long after, he declared on social media that he would not support a federal abortion ban, under any circumstances and would veto such a bill if it came across his desk.
