Stacey Abrams suggests having an abortion as solution to inflation: 'Economic realities of having a child'
Fox News
Stacey Abrams suggested abortion as a solution to inflation on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" Wednesday, claiming that "having children" was causing concern over high prices.
MSNBC contributor Mike Barnicle pressed Abrams further on how she plans to alleviate concerns voters have over the high cost of groceries and gas. Inflation rose 8.2% in September from last year. Hanna Panreck is an associate editor at Fox News.
"But let’s be clear. Having children is why you’re worried about your price for gas, it’s why you’re concerned about how much food costs. For women, this is not a reductive issue. You can’t divorce being forced to carry an unwanted pregnancy from the economic realities of having a child. And so these are — it’s important for us to have ‘both and’ conversations. We don’t have the luxury of reducing it or separating them out," Abrams said.
