Donald Trump vows to make IVF treatment free and criticizes abortion ban in Florida in a bid to appeal to moderate voters on reproductive rights.
Donald Trump, seeking to rebrand himself as a defender of reproductive rights, promised to make IVF treatment free for all women if re-elected for a second term as president. Speaking at a campaign stop, Trump emphasized the need for more babies and expressed support for IVF, acknowledging its high costs.
Trump also proposed allowing new parents to deduct major newborn expenses from their taxes. In addition, he criticized a six-week abortion ban in Florida, advocating for more time for women to make decisions about abortion.
While these statements may attract moderate voters, they risk alienating religious and anti-abortion supporters within the Republican base. Despite Trump’s efforts to present a moderate stance on reproductive issues, his evolving positions on abortion may unsettle pro-life supporters.
