Biden To Target Reproductive Rights In Florida Speech

US
HomepagePolitical Market NewsPolitical RiskPolitical Risk BulletBulletMarketsFixed Income BulletsForeign Exchange Bullets

President Biden will travel to Tampa, Florida this evening to deliver a speech on women’s reproductive rights – a bid to keep one of Biden’s primary political strengths in the spotlight in a state which Democrats hope to make competitive in November.

  • Semafor notes: “The visit, timed eight days before Florida’s 6-week ban on the procedure snaps into effect, will let the president “forcefully advocate for reproductive freedom and call out Donald Trump’s abortion bans,” campaign communications director Michael Tyler said on a press call.”
  • AP notes: “Biden is seeking to capitalize on the unceasing momentum against abortion restrictions nationwide to not only buoy his reelection bid in battleground states he won in 2020, but also to go on the offensive against Donald Trump in states that the presumptive Republican nominee won four years ago. One of those states is Florida, where Biden lost by 3.3 percentage points to Trump.”
  • Biden campaign communications director Michael Tyler told reporters yesterday: “We take Florida very seriously. The idea that Donald Trump has the state in the bag could not be further from the truth. He owns not only the state of abortion rights across the country, but he owns the restriction that we’re seeing play out in Florida. So, yes, that means there’s an opportunity for us.”
