Biden Punishes a Pro-Life State

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

55% : For months, Democrats have been making the case that military bases shouldn't be in pro-life states.
48% : Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo., explicitly argued in March in a speech on the Senate floor that military bases shouldn't be in pro-life states.
44% : In contrast, abortion is not only legal in Colorado, but a "2022 executive order and a 2023 law shield those seeking or providing abortions in Colorado from laws in other states," reports the New York Times.
36% : That same month, Bennet, and Colorado's other senator, Democrat John Hickenlooper, signed a letter with other Democrat senators that noted "13 states have a total ban on abortion and other states are moving to severely limit access to abortion service.""The Department of Defense should also consider the availability and accessibility of health care, including abortion and reproductive care, when making basing decisions," the senators wrote.
35% : But then Roe v. Wade was overturned -- and Alabama's law banning abortion went into effect.
