Biden campaign plans robust push centered on reproductive rights ahead of Dobbs decision anniversary
The Biden campaign plans to mark the two-year anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision that guaranteed the federal right to abortion by barnstorming the country with messaging and events aimed at contrasting President Joe Biden’s views with those of former President Donald Trump, according to information shared exclusively with NBC News.
The Biden campaign plans to mark the two-year anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision that guaranteed the federal right to abortion by barnstorming the country with messaging and events aimed at contrasting President Joe Biden’s views with those of former President Donald Trump, according to information shared exclusively with NBC News.
During the weekend before and on the anniversary of the Dobbs v. Jackson ruling, the campaign will hold more than 30 events to mobilize volunteers and contact voters in cities across battleground states including Detroit, Philadelphia, Atlanta and Las Vegas.
Campaign officials also plan to use the anniversary, which comes just days before Biden is scheduled to debate Trump for the first time this cycle on June 27, as an opportunity to talk about the stakes of the election and attack Trump’s past statements on abortion.
“What you’re going to see this anniversary is every arm, every single piece of muscle on this campaign is going to be mobilized on this issue and part of this effort,” Morgan Mohr, the Biden campaign’s senior adviser for reproductive rights, said in an interview. “We’ve seen it work and we’re really excited to leverage this moment. And we’re also excited to keep doing that every week for the next 20 weeks until we win this election.”
Mohr described the anniversary of the Dobbs decision as the “two-year mark of the devastation that Trump has unleashed across the country” and added that the campaign plans to “show voters exactly what he has done to women across the nation.”
