Former Representative Liz Cheney, known for her staunch opposition to former President Donald Trump, recently stated that while she identifies as pro-life, she does not support the stringent abortion restrictions enacted in several states. In an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union” with Jake Tapper, Cheney remarked that state-level abortion bans, particularly in Republican-led states, "cannot stand."

 

Cheney pointed out how recent laws, such as those in Texas and North Carolina, have restricted abortion access to the point where some women in life-threatening situations are unable to obtain necessary care. “You have pro-life women all across this country who have been watching what’s happened in places like Texas and places like North Carolina,” she explained, noting that these states, among others, implemented severe abortion restrictions following the overturning of *Roe v. Wade*. Cheney described cases where women in critical medical need—those experiencing miscarriages or requiring life-saving procedures—are being denied care due to these prohibitive laws.

 

“I think that’s where you have women, who, like me, have been pro-life who are saying, no this, what we have seen, cannot stand,” Cheney said, highlighting the concerns shared by women with a range of views on abortion. Cheney believes that women from both pro-life and pro-choice perspectives are uniting in support of ensuring accessible healthcare for all women, which is why she has joined Vice President Kamala Harris in a shared effort to promote these rights.
