The Biden campaign is set to air an abortion-focused ad during a commercial break in tonight's presidential debate, aiming to highlight the contrast between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump on reproductive rights.
Democrats view abortion rights as a key issue that can energize voters for the upcoming election. They have consistently linked new restrictions on abortion to Trump, accusing him of promoting 'cruelty and chaos' in the wake of the Roe v. Wade decision being overturned.
Biden's campaign has frequently featured personal stories from women affected by state abortion bans in their ads. In response to the recent dismissal of an appeal regarding Idaho's strict abortion ban by the Supreme Court, the campaign released a new TV spot featuring an Idaho obstetrician who relocated out of fear of facing criminal charges for treating patients under the ban.
In the ad, Dr. Lauren Miller condemns the restrictive laws as 'truly barbaric' and regressive, asserting that they pose a significant threat to women's lives. She squarely places the blame on Donald Trump, attributing the dangerous situation to his policies.
