Biden's abortion script flipped by businesswoman's boost to pro-life groups

Former Republican U.S. Sen. Kelly Loeffler of Georgia donated six figures to pro-life groups in an effort to combat Democrats' abortion narrative ahead of the 2024 election.

"Each Mother's Day I make donations to a list of organizations that has been growing," Loeffler told Fox. "As a strong pro-life advocate, as a woman of faith, as someone who believes in the sanctity of life, I think this is the best investment we can make in our communities, and it's really in stark contrast to the message that you see today on the left.

"Biden and Harris are out on their — whatever tour they like to call it. Reproductive freedom doesn't seem like the right word, but they're out advocating for abortion across the country as their No. 1 issue and benefit of a Biden presidency. And I think there's a better way forward for our country and for our families."

Democrats have sought to make abortion a central theme in this year's presidential and down-ballot races as polls show the party's chances of hanging onto the White House and Senate appear under threat. 

Many view abortion as an issue that would drive up voter turnout for Democrats, who are struggling with low enthusiasm among likely supporters compared to Republicans.

Loeffler says Democrats are making it an issue, because, if they didn't, they wouldn't have anything else to stand on.

BLUE STATE DEMS LOOK TO BUCK PARTY'S CRIME POLICIES, GET MAJOR BACKING FROM POLICE GROUPS IN SWING RACES

In the meantime, she said, abortion rights should be determined at the state level, as former President Trump recently suggested.

Loeffler argued people would ultimately show up to the polls and "vote their conscience" despite efforts by Democrats in some states to get abortion measures on ballots to drive turnout. However, she predicted they would find most people aren't just single-issue voters.

"We care about the direction of the economy. We care about the border being closed. We care about crime needing to go down. We care about our kids needing to be able to read by third grade. All these things, and Democrats have been left with making it a single-issue race because they've failed on every single other policy," she said. 

"The more money the Biden-Harris campaign spends on their pro-abortion campaign, the further they fall in the polls. So, it's going to be interesting. It's going to be very dynamic. But I think we can be confident that the things that we are for are the advancement of the human condition and not ending the human condition."
