"Let's set the blame where it belongs – a Supreme court that now has legitimacy issues itself, because the majority of Americans… are not for a ban on abortion in the United States," Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., said. "But the president has done what he could, and he's going to be doing more."
The comments come as many Republican-controlled states have already banned abortion after Dobbs. More states are likely to do the same in the coming weeks and months – and some progressives want the president to move urgently to ensure women can get abortions.
