Former President Donald Trump stated on Wednesday that he would not sign a federal abortion ban if it were to reach his desk should he be re-elected in November. This marks Trump's strongest stance yet on a national abortion ban. Despite taking credit for appointing Supreme Court justices who contributed to overturning Roe v. Wade, Trump has distanced himself from some of the more stringent efforts by Republicans to restrict abortion.
During a press conference in Atlanta, Trump was asked if he would sign a national abortion ban if Congress passed it. He firmly responded with a 'No' and reiterated his stance when questioned further.
