In remarks from the White House today, President Joe Biden laid out a new executive order "protecting access to reproductive health care services."
Flanked by Vice President Kamala Harris and Secretary of Health and Human Services Xavier Becerra, Biden addressed Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, the Supreme Court's recent decision overturning Roe v. Wade, which had guaranteed abortion access nationwide for nearly five decades. Biden declared that Dobbs was "not a decision driven by the Constitution [or] by history" but "an exercise in raw political power."
