President Joe Biden is reiterating his disappointment with the Texas Abortion ban, calling it “un-American.”
A reporter asked Biden Friday what his message to women in Texas would be and what his administration can do to protect Abortion rights on the federal level.
Biden replied, “The most pernicious thing about the Texas law, it sort of creates a vigilante system where people get rewards to go out… And it just seems un-American.”
He added, “I respect people who think… who don’t support Roe v. Wade. I respect their views. I respect those who believe life begins in the moment of conception. I respect that, I don’t agree with it, I respect that.”
