The Spin

Democratic narrative

By passing laws restricting their access to healthcare, Republicans are attempting to limit American women's rights to make decisions about their own bodies. As the consequences of these laws expand beyond reproductive issues, the Biden administration is right to be using every tool available to secure abortion access and restore the rights taken from millions of Americans by SCOTUS' unjust overturning of Roe.

Republican narrative

Biden is towing a delicate line with this new legislation. The Hyde Amendment prevents Medicaid from paying for abortions, yet the President is pushing for federal intervention to provide the treatment. Now the White House is trying to expand federal abortion access to include emergency contraception. The Democrats should expect kick-back from the Republicans if they continue attempting to undermine SCOTUS' ruling in pursuit of a divisive agenda.
