As expected, Biden is going after Republicans on the abortion issue and pointing to the recent decision by the Alabama Supreme Court that threatened in vitro fertilization treatments.

“To my friends across the aisle, don’t keep families waiting any longer,” Biden said. “Guarantee the right to IVF nationwide.”

Biden also took aim at Trump’s support for the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

“He’s the reason it was overturned. In fact, he brags about it,” Biden said. “Look at the chaos that has resulted.”

The president pointed out one of his State of the Union guests, Kate Cox, a mother of two from Dallas whose lifethreatening pregnancy forced her to travel out of state for abortion care.

“Many of you in this chamber and my predecessor are promising to pass a national ban on reproductive freedom,” Biden said. “My God, what freedoms will you take away next?”
