Fox News host Shannon Bream recently pressed Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.) on whether he supports any limits on abortion prior to a baby’s due date. The Democrat gave an uncommonly clear answer: “No.”
Bream’s pursuit of such clarity is, sadly, rare in her field. Around the first anniversary of the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, newspaper headlines and television chyrons have largely clung to the familiar narrative that the consensus among Americans favors radical abortion policies like those generally espoused by Cardin and his party.
This couldn’t be further from the truth.
Even after 50 years under Roe, the American public strongly embraces protections for human life before birth. One major reason is that scientific advancements since the 1970s have given rise to greater understanding of babies’ development during pregnancy.
When the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, our movement was given a historic opportunity. But the battle for life became much more difficult.
