GOP's 2024 Platform Faces Backlash Over Abortion Stance

Republican Party's revised platform angers anti-abortion activists while critics call it deceptive.

  • The GOP's new platform avoids endorsing a federal abortion ban, causing discontent among anti-abortion advocates.
  • Critics argue the platform's language is a misleading attempt to moderate the party's stance on abortion and same-sex marriage.
  • Anti-abortion protesters demonstrated at the RNC, feeling betrayed by the party's 'watered down' stance.
  • The platform references the 14th Amendment, potentially leaving room for fetal personhood and broader restrictions.
  • Trump's previous actions and Supreme Court appointments continue to influence the party's direction on these issues.
