WASHINGTON, DC (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – Despite the Republican ticket’s opposition to abortion, Donald Trump has said he does not favor a national ban.
Kristen Welker from NBC’s Meet the Press pushed VP candidate and Ohio U.S. Senator JD Vance on the issue on Sunday, asking how a Trump presidency would handle any Congressional bill containing a ban.
When pressed, Vance said Trump would veto such a bill.
The Trump camp has said that it intends to leave abortion rights up to the states.
