What Next: Protecting Abortion, Electing Trump

Update: 2024-11-12

Description

Donald Trump’s position on abortion was opaque enough that even states that passed protections for abortion rights still voted for him by a large margin. But even if a national abortion ban—something JD Vance has spoken in favor of—is probably untenable politically, how else could the incoming administration restrict access to abortion across the country? 


Guest: Caroline Kitchener, national reporter covering abortion for the Washington Post.
