Pelosi Wants Dems. to Use the Filibuster to Enshrine Roe v. Wade Into Law

“People have to view abortion as a democracy issue,” the former Speaker declared.

Longtime Democratic Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi recently declared that the Democrats ought to use the filibuster to force legislation codifying Roe v. Wade into federal law.

“People have to view abortion as a democracy issue,” she recently told MSNBC’s Katy Tur. “This is about freedom to make your own decisions for a woman. It’s a personal decision, it’s an economic decision at the kitchen table of America’s families, if and when they could expand their families or even start their families.”

“Do you think it’s going to be a more powerful issue at the ballot box this time around?” Tur asked the former Speaker of the House.

Pelosi replied that it was because “matter what [Trump] says, there will be a national abortion ban, and that would be horrible for our country.”

She continued that for the Democrats’ radical abortion plan to work, “We have to win it all.”

“We have to win the White House, with our great president of the United States, Joe Biden, who has a vision for America that is in keeping with the vision of our founders, the sacrifice of our men and women in uniform, the aspirations of our children and their families,” she continued.

This is the epitome of pragmatic politicking, to evoke the memory of those who have fought and died to protect our sacred freedoms, which are founded on the right to life, and all the more so for a presentation of her political battleplan to perpetuate eugenics in the United States.

“If President Biden gets reelected and there’s a Democratic House and a Democratic Senate, what can President Biden do to protect abortion nationwide?” Tur asked.

“We can enshrine into the law Roe v. Wade,” Pelosi replied.

When Tur pointed out that this would take two-thirds majority in the Senate, the Congresswoman said, “No it doesn’t. It’s 60 votes is the Senate now but if we win 50-plus-1 in the Senate, 50 plus the vice president, we can overturn the 60-vote rule.”

“The filibuster,” she explained, “and pass it with a 51-vote margin. That’s what we need to do.”
