Former President Donald Trump has stated that laws regarding abortion should be left to the individual American states.
In a video message, the presumptive Republican candidate for the White House—who has drawn strong support from the pro-life movement—said:
My view is now that we have abortion where everybody wanted it from a legal standpoint, the states will determine by vote or legislation or perhaps both. And whatever they decide must be the law of the land — in this case, the law of the state.
