This is a “crisis in the health system,” the US vice president warned from Illinois.
The vice president Kamala Caris criticized the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Rowe v. Wade, who for nearly half a century had guaranteed American women the right to abortion.
It is a “crisis in the health system,” Illinois warned.
“For almost 50 years, “We were talking about what Rowe is defending against Wade,” Harris said in a speech. “Today… we can only talk about what Rowe was defending against Wade. Past tense. “This is a crisis in the health system.”
The US vice president said that millions of women will go to bed tonight Friday without access to the same health care they had just in the morning. And that both their mothers and grandmothers had.
“This is the first time in our history that a constitutional right has been taken away from the people of America,” he said.
Harris even warned that the decision could affect other “rights that we thought had been settled” – including same-sex marriage.
“Sad day … Women’s health in the US is in danger”
“Sad day for the Court and for the country that deprived the Americans of their constitutional right” described the decision of the US Supreme Court for abortions. Joe Biden. The US Supreme Court ruling overturned the historic Rowe v. Wade ruling, declaring that there is no longer a federal constitutional right to abortion. The US president had demanded that Rowe not be overthrown against Wade, as had Vice President Kamala Harris.
The US president said that the “health and life” of women in the US “are now in danger”, while the poorest women will suffer the worst.
President Biden said his government would protect the “fundamental right” of women to travel from states that ban abortions to those that allow them, and also pledged to protect women’s access to medicine.
“So for a woman living in a state that restricts abortions, the decision of the Supreme Court does not prevent her from traveling from her home country to the state that allows it. It does not prevent a doctor in this state from treating her. “The justice minister has made it clear that women must remain free to travel safely to another state to seek the care they need.”
