The president's comments come after Jen Klein, executive director of the White House Gender Policy Council, appeared to throw cold water on the idea of a public health emergency related to abortion access earlier in the week.
"When we looked at the public health emergency, we learned a couple of things. One is that it doesn't free very many resources. It's what's in a public health emergency fund, and there's very little money, tens of thousands of dollars in it. So that didn't seem like a great option. And it also doesn't release significant amount of legal authority," Klein said at a White House press briefing on Friday.
