In March, Pence announced he won’t back Trump this November.
FILE - President Donald Trump listens as Vice President Mike Pence speaks during a briefing at the White House, March 29, 2020, in Washington. again after the Republican National Committee adopted a party platform that reflects the former president’s position opposing a federal abortion ban and ceding limits to states.
Pence added: “Now is not the time to surrender any ground in the fight for the right to life. The 2024 platform removed historic pro-life principles that have long been the foundation of the platform. I urge delegates attending next week’s Republican Convention to restore language to our party’s platform recognizing the sanctity of human life and affirming that the unborn child has a fundamental right to life which cannot be infringed.
The scaled-down platform — just 16 pages and with limited specifics on many key Republican issues — reflects a desire by the Trump campaign to avoid giving Democrats more material for their warnings about the former president’s intentions if he wins back the White House.
