With an ascendant far-right bloc in the House and a slim Democratic majority in the Senate, passing federal legislation to codify Roe’s protections seems nearly impossible. As a result, the administration is relying on executive orders and the power of the presidency to galvanize supporters and push back against further restrictions on abortion.

President Biden has been vocal about the need for federal legislation to restore the rights that were taken away by the Supreme Court’s decision.

They are using executive orders and the bully pulpit to argue that Republicans running in next year’s elections would impose even more restrictions on abortion.

The administration has taken several executive actions in response to the Supreme Court’s decision. President Biden has ordered federal agencies to look for ways to ensure and expand access to birth control, issued a memorandum to protect access to abortion medication at pharmacies, and taken action to protect patients who cross state lines to seek care.

The Biden campaign and the Democratic National Committee are making abortion a primary focus of the president’s re-election effort. They have launched an advertisement campaign in battleground states, including billboards in Times Square, to highlight the importance of protecting and expanding abortion rights. By engaging with supporters and raising awareness about the potential consequences of further restrictions on abortion, the administration hopes to build momentum and mobilize voters in support of pro-choice candidates.

Despite the uphill battle, the Biden administration remains committed to protecting and expanding abortion rights. While federal legislation may be challenging to pass, executive actions and campaigns aimed at raising awareness and mobilizing support are key strategies in the administration’s approach. As the fight for reproductive rights continues, advocates and supporters of abortion access will be closely watching the administration’s efforts and pushing for progress at both the state and federal levels.
