Following several GOP-controlled legislatures that regulate and restrict abortion access, Jill Biden stated, “We need more men to hold each other accountable when women are being hurt or...left behind.” Jill Biden wants men to step up for women's rights:
WASHINGTON — First lady Jill Biden on Wednesday used a Women's History Month event at the White House to call on men to step up and fight to protect women's rights.
The first lady, speaking ahead of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, didn't mince words as she lamented that women find themselves relitigating “battles that we thought we had won a long time ago.” “We need more men to hold each other accountable when women are being hurt or being left behind,” she said.
The Supreme Court declared last June that states can ban abortion. Since then, Republican-controlled legislatures across the country have rolled out regulations shortening the period when a woman can get an abortion and otherwise restricting abortion access.
“We have to recommit to the work ahead to deliver a better future for our nation’s daughters," Biden said.
