WASHINGTON Monday marks the two-year anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court decision that struck down the federal right to an abortion.
Democrats are teeing up another vote that aims to restore Roe v. Wade, while Republicans are promoting their own policies in this presidential election year.
“Our crusade on reproductive rights will continue,” said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.). “June has been a month of MAGA Republicans showing their true colors.”
Schumer said the next vote, likely in July, would reestablish a national right to an abortion before the third trimester of pregnancy by codifying Roe.
Abortion is currently banned at all stages of pregnancy in 14 states and after about six weeks of pregnancy in three others.
