In 2017, Leaders McConnell and Schumer received a letter pleading for the protection of the filibuster, the sixty-vote threshold needed to end debate and advance legislation. The letter noted the preservation of the filibuster would ensure the Senate could continue âto serve as the worldâs greatest deliberative body.â It was signed by then-Senator Kamala Harris.
Presidential candidate Harris is of a different mind. Last week, in an interview with Wisconsin Public Radio, Harris declared that she wants to âeliminate the filibuster for Roe and get us to the point where fifty-one votes would be what we need to actually put back in law the protections for reproductive freedom.â Her disregard for the worldâs greatest deliberative body is now only eclipsed by her disregard for the sanctity of human life.
Where Biden sometimes struggled to say the word âabortion,â Harris shouts it. In fact, she doesnât want to âput backâ Roe, but codify law that exceeds its parameters, championing the so-called Womenâs Health Protection Act (WHPA). The bill proposes an even more dangerous abortion regime than Roe did. It creates a federal right to abortion at any stage of pregnancy, for any reason, effectively imposing no-limits abortion on all fifty states. Both Harris and her running mate Tim Walz co-sponsored the bill during their respective stints in Congress…
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.
