WASHINGTON—Joe Biden today announced that he would not run for president and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee.

“If elected president, Harris would press on with this Administration’s extreme agenda supporting expansionist policies that push abortion on demand at any time, anywhere, and under any circumstances,” said Carol Tobias, president of National Right to Life. “Kamala Harris is radically pro-abortion and sees the lives of precious unborn babies as expendable.”

Kamala Harris is an abortion apologist who represents the extreme pro-abortion position of the Democratic Party.

“Kamala Harris has acted as the unofficial Abortion Czar of the Biden-Harris Administration,” Tobias continued, “She has toured the country pushing unlimited abortion and criticizing protective state laws that support women and their preborn children.”

As a presidential candidate in 2019, Kamala Harris campaigned on requiring states that have historically passed pro-life laws to seek “preclearance” from the Justice Department before enacting any new laws protecting preborn babies and their mothers. Laws passed in those states would be legally unenforceable under a Harris Administration without preclearance from the Justice Department.

Vice President Harris supports the use of taxpayer dollars to fund abortions. While serving in the Senate, Harris voted against the “No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act,” which would establish a permanent, government-wide prohibition on federal subsidies for abortion and for health plans that cover abortion with narrow exceptions.

Vice President Harris also supports the “Women’s Health Protection Act,” a bill that would enshrine unlimited abortion until birth in federal law and do away with virtually all existing protections for unborn children and their mothers on both the federal and state levels, including parental involvement laws.

Throughout her political career, Harris has received endorsements and campaign donations from groups that promote unlimited abortion, including Planned Parenthood Action Fund, EMILY’s List, and Reproductive Freedom for All (formerly NARAL Pro-Choice America).

Founded in 1968, the National Right to Life Committee (NRLC), the federation of 50 state right-to-life, is the nation’s oldest and largest grassroots pro-life organization. Recognized as the flagship of the pro-life movement, NRLC works through legislation and education to protect innocent human life from abortion, infanticide, assisted suicide, and euthanasia.
