Republican Party policy on birth control and abortion access has made headlines throughout the 2024 campaign, with GOP senators this month voting to block a bill that would have guaranteed access to contraceptives nationwide.

The Right to Contraception Act was stopped in its tracks after failing to achieve the 60 votes required for a full Senate vote, with all opposition to the legislation coming from Republicans.

During a speech this week, Vice President Kamala Harris addressed the issue directly and claimed that former President Donald Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee, had said that he would be "looking" at restrictions on contraception.
