On Wednesday, Democrat lawmakers came after Senator Lindsey Graham\u2019s (R-S.C.) proposed federal abortion law.<\/p>\n<p>The proposed Bill is an attempt to bridge a political divide on the subject by allowing abortions up to 15-weeks past the point of conception nationwide. The Bill allows exceptions to the time limit for cases of rape, incest and pregnancies that put the mother\u2019s life in jeopardy.<\/p>\n<p>House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) accused Graham of trying to outlaw the procedure while she was speaking out against the idea of each state deciding their own policy on the matter.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cSenator Graham saying that this should be a states issue \u2013 boom, boom, boom, boom,\u201d Pelosi said. \u201cEverybody\u2019s saying this should be a states issue. And then, probably at the insistence of the MAGA grassroots coming out and saying there should be a federal ban.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In a separate press conference, a trio of Democrat representatives characterized Graham\u2019s suggestion as \u2018government mandated pregnancies.\u2019 Representative Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) said any negotiation on policy is off the table. He also claimed that Democrats only position is to enforce federal abortion enabling.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cWe support Roe v. Wade,\u201d he said. \u201cWe support the Women\u2019s Health Protections Act. Read the Bill. Republicans, if you\u2019re unclear on our position, we all voted for it. That\u2019s our position. But their position is a nationwide ban.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Jeffries was caught flat footed when a reporter pointed out that the Graham\u2019s proposal does not ban abortions. The reporter noted that it simply aligns America\u2019s abortion policy more closely to many European nations. The Democrat responded by spouting his unwavering support for the now-defunct Roe v. Wade court case.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">After being called out for \u201cmisleading\u201d rhetoric, Democrat Caucus Chair Rep. Hakeem Jeffries repeatedly refuses to recognize ANY abortion limits, including until the moment of birth. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/M7LfCNr89A\">pic.twitter.com\/M7LfCNr89A<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 RNC Research (@RNCResearch) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RNCResearch\/status\/1570105980444180480?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 14, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While speaking on the floor of the upper chamber, Senator Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) claimed that any restrictions on unmitigated abortion should galvanize a response.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cThis is an outright attack on women in this country. That is how I see it. That is how more and more women and those who support our right to make decisions about our own bodies,\u201d Hirono said. \u201cMadam President, I yield the floor, but clearly this is a literally a call to arms.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Abortion activists agree with Hirono\u2019s sentiments. Dozens of pro-life groups and crisis pregnancy centers have been attacked since the leaked Supreme Court\u2019s draft decision on Roe v. Wade.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/defense-for-parkland-shooter-abruptly-rests-case\/\">Defense For Parkland Shooter Abruptly Rests Case<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US Senator Lindsey Graham holds a media conference at JW Marriott Hotel in Ankara, on January 19, 2019.
