“We can’t wait 190 days [until the election]. People need care now and that wait could mean life or death for people.” “A lot of the issues we’ve been flagging for the White House ended up in this executive order,” she said. Voters are watching very closely for how their elected officials are going to show up for them right now.” They will also “consider” strengthening protections for doctors performing abortions in medical emergencies by updating the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act, and plan to create another interagency task force that includes Attorney General Merrick Garland. “But they’re about to find out.” Biden had already asked the administration to explore many of these steps, while others remain vague on their exact mechanisms.

Move by president signals start of White House fightback after supreme court struck down Roe v Wade.

Biden concluded: “We cannot allow an out-of-control supreme court, working in conjunction with extremist elements of the Republican party, to take away freedoms and our personal autonomy. “I don’t think the court or, for that matter, Republicans who for decades have pushed the extreme agenda have a clue about the power of American women. The president noted that abortion bans have taken effect in 13 states with 12 additional states likely to following in the coming weeks. Flanked by vice president Kamala Harris and health secretary Xavier Becerra, Biden warned: “What we’re witnessing is a giant step backwards in much of our country … Some of these states don’t allow for exceptions for rape or incest. The supreme court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade two weeks ago was a seismic shock to the political system that left elected officials scrambling to respond. Biden and Garland have vowed to oppose any state or local official who attempts to interfere with women exercising that right.

En 1973, el litigio judicial llevó la apelación de Roe a la Corte Suprema, donde su caso si fue escuchado. Pero todo cambió el 24 de junio de 2022, cuando el dictamen de ‘Roe contra Wade’ fue anulado por una mayoría de 6-3 votos en el Alto Tribunal. También pedirá que aumente los esfuerzos de comunicación en materia de acceso a servicios de salud reproductiva y al aborto. Por el amor de Dios hay una elección en noviembre. Entre ambos comenzó la batalla que se conoce como Roe vs. Jackson Women’s Health Organization anuló el histórico fallo de la Corte de 1973 Roe vs. Ella afirmó que había sido violada pero su caso fue rechazado y tuvo que dar a luz. "La forma más rápida de restaurar Roe es aprobar una ley nacional", dijo Biden. "El desafío es salir y votar. La decisión en el caso conocido como Dobbs v. "El presidente Biden ha dejado claro que la única manera de asegurar el derecho de una mujer a elegir es que el Congreso restaure las protecciones de Roe como ley federal", dijo la Casa Blanca. "Hasta entonces, se ha comprometido a hacer todo lo que esté a su alcance para defender los derechos reproductivos y proteger el acceso al aborto seguro y legal", agregaron. En la orden se insta también a ampliar el acceso a píldoras abortivas y a garantizar que todas las pacientes tengan acceso a servicios médicos de emergencia amparados por la ley. El presidente reconoció las limitaciones que enfrenta su oficina, diciendo que requeriría una ley del Congreso para restaurar el acceso al aborto en los más de una docena de estados donde los límites estrictos o las prohibiciones totales han entrado en vigor a raíz del fallo de la Corte Suprema.

También pedirá a la Comisión Federal de Comercio que tome medidas para proteger la privacidad de quienes buscan información sobre atención reproductiva en línea. La decisión en el caso conocido como Dobbs contra Jackson Women’s Health Organization anuló la histórica sentencia del caso Roe vs Wade de 1973. Biden hablará el viernes por la mañana “sobre la protección del acceso a los servicios de salud reproductiva”, dijeron las fuentes.

Amid growing calls from Democrats for more action, the president signed an executive order that attempts to safeguard access to abortion medication and ...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) has pressed Biden to expand the Supreme Court, for example, but he has reaffirmed that he will not consider such a move. “Go out and vote, for God’s sake,” he said. “After having made the decision based on a reading of a document that was frozen in time in the 1860s when women didn’t even have the right to vote, the court now practically dares the women of America to go to the ballot box and restore the very rights they’ve just taken away.” Moayedi said many women — including immigrants, military members and the incarcerated — will still struggle to find care. “So the choice is clear. Biden has so far resisted other efforts that Democrats have been pushing him to adopt, and his actions Friday may not satisfy those wanting him to take bolder steps. “I want to be hopeful, y’all. I really do. Some also say the White House seemed flat-footed despite having plenty of time to form a plan after a draft Supreme Court decision leaked nearly two months earlier. The order directs Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra to submit a report within 30 days that would address many of those items. But advocates have been urging the president to at least try to fight back against abortion rights restrictions, rather than second-guessing them before making an attempt. The Senate is divided 50-50, but at least two Democratic senators are opposed to overriding the filibuster to codify abortion rights. Abortion rights activists generally applauded Biden’s tone and message, although some said it should have been delivered two weeks ago.

Congress is also slated to have a series of hearings on the impact of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. The first bill, the Women’s Health Protection Act of 2022, would reestablish a nationwide right to an abortion. “Now when you use a search engine, or the app on your phone, companies collect your data, they sell it to other companies and even share it with law enforcement,” Biden said. “We need two additional pro-choice senators and a pro-choice House to codify Roe at federal law.” Jackson Women’s Health Organization, “made clear it will not protect the rights of women.” Ohio Republican Gov. Mike DeWine declined to comment on the state law’s impact in the case this week, saying he had read about it in the paper.

Former President Donald Trump was the first U.S. president to be impeached twice. Online, it would seem some people beli.

It is the job of the Senate to consider whether the articles of impeachment merit removal from office. Article II of the Constitution gives the U.S. House of Representatives the sole power to impeach an official. So far, no House majority has ever impeached a president of the same party. Online, it would seem some people believe President Joe Biden has joined the club. No, Joe Biden isn’t in the process of being impeached No, Joe Biden isn’t in the process of being impeached

El presidente Joe Biden firmó un decreto este viernes para salvaguardar el derecho al aborto, luego del fallo de la Corte Suprema que lo anuló.

Los demócratas y los defensores del derecho al aborto presionaron a la Casa Blanca para que adopte una postura más firme para codificar el acceso al aborto. El decreto de este viernes hará que el secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos, Xavier Becerra, tome medidas para garantizar el acceso al aborto, incluyendo el aborto con medicamentos aprobado por la FDA y la ampliación del acceso "a toda la gama de servicios de salud reproductiva", según una hoja informativa de la administración compartida con CNN. Estos servicios incluyen "la anticoncepción de emergencia y la anticoncepción reversible de acción prolongada, como los dispositivos intrauterinos (DIU)", dice la hoja informativa, citando la cobertura del control de la natalidad en virtud de la Ley de Asistencia Asequible. “La verdad es que la mayoría de la Corte Suprema de hoy que está jugando rápido y suelto con los hechos incluso hace 150 años, el derecho consuetudinario en muchas leyes estatales no penalizaba el aborto temprano en el embarazo, lo cual es muy similar a la línea de viabilidad trazada por Roe, pero la mayoría de Dobbs ignora ese hecho”, dijo Biden, flanqueado por la vicepresidenta Kamala Harris y el secretario de Salud y Servicios Humanos, Xavier Becerra, advirtiendo que la decisión de la mayoría de la corte “ignora que se promulgaron muchas leyes para proteger a las mujeres en el momento en que estaban muriendo por abortos inseguros".

Biden delivered impassioned remarks Friday condemning the “extreme” Supreme Court majority that ended a constitutional right to abortion and pleading with ...

“President Biden has made clear that the only way to secure a woman’s right to choose is for Congress to restore the protections of Roe as federal law,” the White House said. Online searches, location data, text messages and emails, and even apps that track periods could be used to prosecute people who seek an abortion — or medical care for a miscarriage — as well as those who assist them, experts say. Privacy experts say that could make women vulnerable because their personal data could be used to surveil pregnancies and shared with police or sold to vigilantes. The order, after the high court’s June 24 ruling that ended the nationwide right to abortion and left it to states to determine whether or how to allow the procedure, comes as Biden has faced criticism from some in his own party for not acting with more urgency to protect women’s access to abortion. “I can’t think of anything more extreme.” “Your vote can make that a reality.” The decision in the case known as Dobbs v. His executive order also directs agencies to work to educate medical providers and insurers about how and when they are required to share privileged patient information with authorities — an effort to protect women who seek or utilize abortion services. He was joined by Vice President Kamala Harris, HHS secretary Xavier Becerra and Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco in the Roosevelt Room as he signed the order. “The challenge is go out and vote. “The fastest way to restore Roe is to pass a national law,” Biden said. About a dozen more states are set to impose additional restrictions.

The president plans to announce an executive order to safeguard access to abortion medication and emergency contraception. The vice president will meet with ...

At a White House event, Biden reiterated his call for voters to elect supporters of abortion rights in the fall to counter what he called “an exercise in raw political power.” “The court now practically dares the women of America to go to the ballot box and restore the very rights they’ve just taken away,” Biden said, adding that he doesn’t think the court or Republicans “have a clue about the power of American women.” Today, President Biden said that the Supreme Court “has made clear it will not protect the rights of women” as he held an event to sign an executive order that, among other things, seeks to safeguard access to abortion medication and emergency contraception and to protect patient privacy.

President Joe Biden signed an executive order Friday aimed at protecting abortion rights in response to the landmark decision by the Supreme Court ...

He added that that the court's decision "has an impact much beyond Roe and the right to privacy generally. The President derided the Supreme Court's decision as "extreme" and "totally wrongheaded," saying, "What we're witnessing wasn't a constitutional judgment, it was an exercise in raw political power." White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said using federal lands for abortion services would have "dangerous ramifications." Jen Klein, the co-chair and executive director of the White House Gender Policy Council, said Friday the White House is "looking at everything" to ensure access to abortion and that declaring a public health emergency "is definitely not off the table." "It's outrageous. I don't care what your position is, it's outrageous and it's dangerous," Biden said.

El presidente estadounidense dijo que la decisión de la Corte Suprema de derogar Roe vs Wade fue "terrible, extrema y totalmente equivocada".

El presidente usó sus declaraciones para decirles a los estadounidenses que la única manera de "ejercer y restaurar" el derecho de las mujeres de acceder al aborto es "ejerciendo el poder del voto". Sin embargo, el poder de la presidencia en el tema del aborto es particularmente limitado dadas las provisiones establecidas por el Congreso que prohíben al gobierno federal invertir fondos para el apoyo del aborto: algunas de esas provisiones recibieron el respaldo de Biden en su momento. Desde el seno del Partido Demócrata se presionó a Biden para que emprendiera acciones más decididas después de la decisión de la Corte Suprema de eliminar la protección constitucional al aborto con la derogación de Roe vs Wade. Adicionalmente, fortalece las protecciones a mujeres que crucen líneas estatales para hacerse el procedimiento, protege el acceso a anticonceptivos y toma medidas para proteger la privacidad de las pacientes. Durante las declaraciones que dio desde la Casa Blanca, el mandatario describió la decisión de la Corte de anular la histórica sentencia que dio paso a la protección constitucional del aborto, conocida como Roe vs Wade, como "terrible, extrema y totalmente equivocada". El presidente de EE.UU., Joe Biden, firmó este viernes una orden ejecutiva para reforzar las medidas que protegen el acceso al aborto y a los anticonceptivos en el país, luego de que la Corte Suprema retirara las protecciones constitucionales existentes y otorgara a los estados autonomía frente al tema.

Former President Trump endorsed dozens of GOP candidates in the midterms, but Biden has been far slower to help out Democrats in the midterms.

"Who in the Democratic Party is pining for Joe Biden and has been wearing a Joe Biden sticker? Some of the more moderate democrats are upset with the overall performance and lack of ability to communicate and lead the country." "Even Democrats are upset with Joe Biden. Some of it is that his progressive left are angry with him for not delivering on the left-wing promises that he gave him. I think most Democrats in competitive races are going to say, ‘I would rather not have a president whose approval rating is in the 30s anywhere near my campaign.’" He also had endorsed 11 Senate contenders and 19 candidates for governor across the nation by that date. By early July, Biden had endorsed three Democrats in congressional primaries, two of which won.

President Biden has said he plans to run for a second term, but his age has become an uncomfortable issue for him and his party.

At one point, he had trouble lifting a glass of water to his lips and stepping down a ramp, and he also made an unexplained trip to the hospital. At a photo opportunity, Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany gently pointed Mr. Biden in the direction of the cameras. The White House seems equally determined to guard Mr. Biden against unscripted interactions with the news media. If he mounts another campaign in 2024, Mr. Biden would be asking the country to elect a leader who would be 86 at the end of his tenure, testing the outer boundaries of age and the presidency. Mr. Biden’s advisers say he resists such management and pushes in the other direction. Just a year and a half into his first term, Mr. Biden is already more than a year older than Ronald Reagan was at the end of two terms. Still, aides tried to limit his schedule, monitored sharply by the first lady, Nancy Reagan. “That’s one of the first lessons we had, to not overschedule,” recalled Tom Griscom, one of those aides. By the end of his term, he was boasting about passing a cognitive test meant to detect signs of dementia. And as Mr. Biden insists he plans to run for a second term, his age has increasingly become an uncomfortable issue for him, his team and his party. The president’s medical report in November indicated he had atrial fibrillation but that it was stable and asymptomatic. “I have just turned 80 and I have found over the last two or three years I think it would have been unwise for me to try to run any organization. He often shuffles when he walks, and aides worry he will trip on a wire.

Es decepcionante lo poco que los demócratas han hecho. Pero, más que nada, los riesgos no son nada comparados con lo que va a suceder. “El viento realmente estaba trabajando en mi contra”, dijo el manifestante, que no se identificó. “Eso es lo que estaba pasando por mi mente.

The president’s order directs Mr. Becerra to develop a report “identifying potential actions” to protect access to abortion but does not say what those actions will be. “So part of this is, as you are noting, are things the president has talked about and what the secretary has already started to work on. It also directs Mr. Becerra to “consider actions” to protect patients’ privacy. The White House has dismissed those ideas as legally unworkable and potentially more dangerous for women seeking abortions. But it does not say how agencies will ensure that amid heightened tensions after the Supreme Court’s decision. And what this asks for is a very deliberate plan and process.” In his remarks, Mr. Biden decried news of a 10-year-old girl in Ohio who became pregnant after being raped and was forced to leave her state to get an abortion. Others have urged Mr. Biden to take bolder action, even if he risks being overturned in court. Wade, President Biden issued an executive order on Friday designed to ensure access to abortion medication and emergency contraception while preparing for legal fights to come. Wade, New York City was a haven for women from across the country. “Consider the challenge accepted, court.” Decades later, a new generation of advocateshas vowed that it will remain so.

“The quality of the intelligence pre-invasion was excellent and absolutely world-class,” King said in a recent interview. Biden has said he wants to avoid a “third world war.” Most of the intelligence community’s work since the war began has been kept secret. Ukrainian officials and observers say Ukraine still is vastly outgunned by Russia in what’s become a grinding war of attrition heavily reliant on artillery fire. And agencies are on watch for election influence or interference from Russia amid expectations that Putin may use U.S. support for Ukraine as justification for another campaign against an American election. The thing he missed most after leaving the vice presidency, he said, was reading the President’s Daily Brief, the compilation of the intelligence community’s top collection and analysis. “It’s very hard to say.” “The problem was the assessment of what would happen after the invasion.” Douglas London, a former CIA officer who has criticized the agency’s direction in recent years, said the Russia-Ukraine war has shown the CIA is on its way to becoming “an elite spy service again.” “I’ve been involved with your agency for not 75 years, but — I hate to admit it — 52 years,” Biden said to laughs from the officers gathered. Biden came to the White House with a long history of receiving intelligence briefings, having served eight years as vice president and 36 years as a senator from Delaware, where he led the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and served on the Intelligence Committee when it was first created in the 1970s. “It was thanks to the incredible work of our intelligence professionals that we were able to inform the world what Vladimir Putin was planning in Ukraine,” Biden told the audience while standing in front of the agency’s memorial wall.

Two weeks ago, the Supreme Court issued a decision that overturned Roe v. Wade and eliminated a woman's Constitutional right to choose.
