Top abortion organizations back Biden-Harris for 2024 presidency.
Three major abortion industry groups have thrown their support behind President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’s 2024 presidential campaign, giving the Democrat candidates the industry’s seal of approval.
Planned Parenthood Action Fund, NARAL: Pro-Choice America, and EMILY’s List have all endorsed the Biden/Harris 2024 ticket on June 23.
According to its June 23 press release, “Planned Parenthood Action Fund announced its endorsement of Joe Biden’s re-election.
“This announcement comes one year after the Supreme Court decision to strip federal abortion rights, prompting 20 states to ban some or all abortions and jeopardizing critical health care access for millions.”
Alexis McGill Johnson, president and CEO of the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, released a statement reiterating the group’s position on the Biden campaign: “President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have been committed to fighting back against the onslaught of attacks against our reproductive freedom. And we need them to continue this critical work. Abortion is healthcare.
“We’ve seen firsthand the aftermath of chaos and devastation when politicians use their power to steal control of our own bodies, lives, and futures. We need leaders who are committed to protecting our freedoms, not taking them away.

In its press release, the group cited concern about millions of Americans being blocked from accessing abortion care due to state restrictions and the support that Biden and Harris have continued to offer to legislators attempting to secure abortion rights.
NARAL Pro-Choice America President Mini Timmaraju said in her statement that, “President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are the strongest advocates for reproductive freedom ever to occupy the White House, and NARAL Pro-Choice America proudly endorses their reelection. It’s as simple as this: Abortion matters to Americans.
“In elections since the Supreme Court took away our right to abortion, voters have mobilized in massive numbers to elect Democrats who will fight to restore it.
“Americans know the extremist GOP stacked the courts to take away our freedoms, and they won’t forget it. We’re proud to make this historic endorsement, and our 4 million members are ready to get to work to send President Biden and Vice President Harris back to the White House.”
EMILYs List’s Endorsement
Emily’s List, which identifies itself as “the nation’s largest resource for women in politics,” offered their support for the vice president, furthering its work to “elect Democratic pro-choice women up and down the ballot and across the country with a g
