President Biden met virtually with several Democratic governors on efforts to protect women's abortion access.
The president gave brief remarks and listened to nine governors — Gov. Kathy Hochul of New York, Gov. Roy Cooper of North Carolina, Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico, Gov. Ned Lamont of Connecticut, Gov. Jared Polis of Colorado, Gov. J.B. Pritzker of Illinois, Gov. Jay Inslee of Washington, Gov. Kate Brown of Oregon and Gov. Daniel McKee of Rhode Island.
The president said his administration will act to protect the"bedrock rights" of women traveling to other states for abortion services. And the administration will protect women's access to medical abortion pills the Food and Drug Administration has approved for decades, he said. The president acknowledged he lacks sufficient votes in the Senate to eliminate the filibuster to codify federal abortion rights at the moment. He said the party needs more votes in the Senate in the midterm elections to get a bill to his desk.
Hochul, the first governor to speak, said New York is"prepared to serve as a destination" and"safe harbor" for women.
