WASHINGTON, May 3 — US President Biden said today he does not know whether the leaked Supreme Court draft abortion ruling is genuine or reflects a final decision, but his administration will be ready to respond to protect abortion rights when a ruling is issued.
“I believe that a woman’s right to choose is fundamental,” Biden said in a statement, adding that if Roe v. Wade is overturned, elected officials will need to protect a woman’s right to choose and voters will need to elect pro-choice officials in November. — Reuters
