The nearest abortion clinic – in Chicago – was too far away and too expensive for her mother to provide her with the procedure

Why can’t Biden do something to safeguard abortion in his current term?
If he can’t do something on his current term, why will he be able to do something on his next one?
Biden doesn’t have the authority to safeguard abortion. He had the authority to veto Congress. Biden would veto a nationwide abortion ban. Trump or any other Republican would not.
Additionally, presidents appoint supreme Court justices in the event of a vacancy, or if Congress ever gets on board for expanding the court… do we’d need a Democrat in office if we’re ever going to reverse Dobbs.
Can’t he do it temporarily via executive order?
It would take an act of congress, and the D’s don’t have the votes. Shitty but true.
Don’t bother, he’s from Lemmygrad and just wants to blame the Democrats for everything
Dude, I’m not even from the US. My question is, in my opinion, an obvious one, at least to an outsider to the US political system. Why do you have to vote him again, when he’s in power now?
His presidential subscription needs to be re-upped every Summer Olympics
Because presidents serve for a limited number of years.
Of which he had 4 in total to do something about abortions, so I fail to see how that’s an adequate answer
It’s a classic case of maintaining the status quo. He may not be able to codify abortion protection but he can at least stop the R’s from doing it.

Don’t bother, he’s from lemmy.world and just wants to blame the leftists for everything.
Acktually… I think it’s lemm.ee
Whatever you say, fash
I probably agree with your stance on abortion over all. I also generally dislike ML Communists/Leninists for their cultish indoctrination and authoritarian tendencies. But you’ve been way off base with this reply and the previous one in this chain. And are only serving to make yourself look bad. Something that can and has happened to all of us sometimes. Step back, take a look around, and chill.
Dude, these fuckers called me a fascist because I’m a liberal. You want to tell someone to chill, tell them.
No one in this thread called you a fascist you little baby. Someone from a different country asked you an honest question and you turned it into a self-pity party.
No one did. And even if they did that wasn’t the only thing I was talking about. There are valid criticisms about all ideologies especially liberalism. I may not agree with the extremism and hypocrisy that they attack it with. But sometimes your enemies or people you just don’t like do have a point. Separate yourself from the system and stop being offended for it.
You aren’t an ideology. You’re more complex and more flexible than that. Just like other people. Sometimes we all forget that though. You started out attacking the messenger. Not the message. Yeah I think lemmygrad is a toxic place, and wouldn’t associate with it. But, that had no real bearing on what the person said.
