Abortion is a highly and deeply personal decision. It is very complicated. You have dramatic effects for the family, for the woman. It can have health effects. Some pregnancies are fine in the first month, and then they are not fine in the fourth month for medical reasons. Some pregnancies are the result of rape or incest. Some religions support abortion. Some religions oppose abortion. This is a very complicated issue, very personal, and it is exactly the wrong issue for government. Republicans want to criminalize abortion. Keep government out of your doctor's office. Democrats support Roe v. Wade. I urge the American people that if they want to have Roe v. Wade upheld, they cast their vote at the ballot box this November. Democrats' Accomplishments
