Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, Republicans have struggled to have a cohesive message around abortion. Now, party officials are arguing they don’t actually need one.
Republicans have experimented with a number of different party stances, from calling abortion a states’ rights issue to fighting over when federal restrictions should be implemented to ignoring bans altogether and focusing on “pro-family” policies.
“Republicans not having a unified abortion position is a fact. We have a diversity of views on the issue,” National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Richard Hudson told NOTUS.
