Former President Donald Trump launched a national debate on abortion law on April 8 with his announcement that he believes the legality of the procedure should be determined by the states, not Congress.
“My view is, now that we have abortion where everyone wanted it from a legal standpoint, the states will determine by vote or legislation, or perhaps both. And whatever they decide must be the law of the land. In this case, the law of the state,” President Trump said in a video message posted to his Truth Social account.
