Trump's stance on abortion raises questions about potential federal restrictions

Former President Donald Trump, after winning the election, has stated he prefers to leave abortion decisions to the states. However, he has options to impose restrictions without Congress, raising concerns among abortion rights supporters. Voters in seven states approved measures supporting abortion rights, while some measures failed. Polls indicate that a significant number of voters who support abortion rights also backed Trump, suggesting they believe he will not pursue a national ban. Trump has previously denied intentions for a federal abortion ban, emphasizing state control. His comments have drawn mixed reactions, with some anti-abortion supporters criticizing him for not taking a stronger stance.
