The Democrats’ star-studded, four-day convention concluded with Vice President Kamala Harris accepting the party’s nomination for president. While most speakers stayed on script and shared factual information, some statements lacked context and contained false information.
Here is an analysis of the claims made during the convention.
Trump’s stance on abortion bans
VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS mentioned that Trump would “ban medication abortion and enact a nationwide abortion ban with or without Congress.”
THE FACTS: Trump has expressed different views on abortion bans, stating support for a national ban in the past. However, he recently clarified that he would leave the issue up to the states.
Despite previous statements, Trump has denied plans for a federal ban on abortion during recent interactions with the media.
