Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has reversed his support for a national abortion ban and said that if he is elected, the GOP would also support access to in vitro fertilization.
His statement, in a Monday morning post on his social media platform, backtracks on previous commitments to pass a national abortion ban, at the risk of upsetting his conservative supporters on the religious right. On the campaign trail, Trump has expressed interest in a 15-week ban, and during his 2016 campaign, he said he would sign a 20-week ban if it made it to his desk. “My view is now … the states will determine by vote or legislation, or perhaps both. And whatever they decide must be the law of the land,” Trump said, noting that many states will have different laws.
