Kamala Harris Rhetoric on Trump Abortion Ban is Misleading

Fact Check: Kamala Harris's Statements on Trump's Abortion Ban


Kamala Harris continues to make statements suggesting that Donald Trump supports or would implement a nationwide abortion ban, significantly restricting reproductive rights.



Vice President Harris has frequently warned that Trump would ban abortion nationwide, citing the implications of policies like those in Project 2025. Her statements often connect Trump directly to these policies, suggesting a more aggressive stance on abortion than Trump has publicly admitted to.


Trump himself has repeatedly distanced himself from Project 2025 and did so during the Sept. 10 debate with Vice President Kamala Harris saying-

“I have nothing to do with Project 2025,” Trump said in the ABC News Presidential Debate. “I haven’t read it. I don’t want to read it purposely. I’m not going to read it.”


Donald Trump has publicly stated that he believes abortion policy should be decided at the state level. This stance has been reiterated during his campaign and in various media interactions where he explicitly said he would not support a national abortion ban.



   

While there are indeed movements within the Republican party advocating for stricter abortion laws, Trump's commitment to leaving abortion legislation to states directly contradicts Harris's narrative of a nationwide ban under his presidency.


Vice President Kamala Harris's repeated claims that former President Donald Trump would or has advocated for a national abortion ban are misleading.
