Biden campaign blames Trump for Alabama frozen embryo ruling

Driving the news: Biden's re-election campaign blamed former President Trump's appointment of three conservative Supreme Court justices who overturned Roe. v Wade, while the president called the decision "a direct result" of the 2022 Dobbs decision.

• "The disregard for women's ability to make these decisions for themselves and their families is outrageous and unacceptable," Biden said in a statement.
• "My message is: The Vice President and I are fighting for your rights."
• "And we won't stop until we restore the protections of Roe v. Wade in federal law for all women in every state," he said.

The big picture: Abortion has proven to be a winning issue for Democrats since the Supreme Court overturned decades of precedent by overruling Roe.

• "What is happening in Alabama right now is only possible because Donald Trump's Supreme Court justices overturned Roe v. Wade," Biden-Harris 2024 Campaign Manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez said in a statement.

• "If Donald Trump is elected, there is no question that he will impose his extreme anti-freedom agenda on the entire country," she said.

The other side: Former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley said Wednesday that frozen embryos created through IVF are "babies," a positioning that is line with the Alabama state ruling.

• Trump has not weighed in on the Alabama court ruling and a spokesperson did not immediately respond to Axios' request for comment.
